After Action Report

In New Orleans, the Hornets took care of the Bucks 106-89. The Hornets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Bucks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Bucks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Bucks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
