After Action Report
The Hornets ran roughshod over the Grizzlies 131-105. The Grizzlies had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
