After Action Report

In a track meet, the Hawks squeaked past the Wizards 123-122. The tempo dragged the Wizards into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Second-chance points piled up for the Hawks; Hawks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
