After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets rolled past the Clippers 126-92. The Clippers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Clippers couldn't shake the cold spell; Clippers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Clippers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
