After Action Report

In San Antonio, the Hornets rolled past the Spurs 120-99. The Spurs had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Hornets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
