After Action Report

The Hawks survived the Celtics 120-117. The Celtics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hawks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
