After Action Report
In a track meet, the Hornets blew the doors off the Lakers 147-114. The Hornets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Lakers' outside barrage was a constant threat. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
