After Action Report
The Hornets fended off the Hawks 103-96. The Hawks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hornets. Second-chance points piled up for the Hornets; the Hornets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
