After Action Report
The Hornets buried the Pacers 121-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Pacers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pacers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
