After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Hawks ran roughshod over the Magic 125-90. The Hawks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hawks steamroller is in full effect right now. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Magic · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
