After Action Report
The Hornets edged the Heat 108-99. Hornets' offense had its way with the Heat. Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Heat are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Heat locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Heat · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
