After Action Report

The Hornets took care of the Mavericks 108-98. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Mavericks are in a full-on tailspin. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
