It doesn’t matter: 5 takeaways from Celtics/Hawks

The Atlanta Hawks controlled the glass throughout their win over the Boston Celtics. They secured 17 offensive rebounds. Some came via missed communications, others by lucky bounces, and some were created via physicality and hustle. Regardless of how they occurred, the Celtics must do a better job of controlling their glass.

28 of the Hawks' 123 points came via 2nd-chance scenarios. Limiting even half of those would have vastly altered the game's flow. Clint Capela is a force on the glass. His presence and success will give the coaching staff some additional film to watch and learn from.
