After Action Report

The Hornets survived the Bobcats 98-94. Ugly basketball, but the Hornets did just enough. The Hornets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Bobcats came in with something to prove after a 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. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Bobcats · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
