After Action Report

In New Orleans, the Hornets edged the Trail Blazers 127-118. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed.
