After Action Report
In Seattle, the Hornets blew the doors off the SuperSonics 116-83. The Hornets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
