After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Lakers fended off the Hawks 105-96. Ugly basketball, but the Lakers did just enough. Lakers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Tonight's Hawks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
