After Action Report
The Celtics pulled away from the Hawks 105-92. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Hawks played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Hawks' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
