What tipped it
- Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Bobcats · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Bobcats · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
