After Action Report
In a track meet, the Hawks blew the doors off the Heat 129-105. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Hawks. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
