After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets blew the doors off the Clippers 115-92. The Clippers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Hornets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Clippers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Clippers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
