After Action Report
In a track meet, the Hornets outlasted the Hawks 127-116. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Hornets; Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
