After Action Report
The Hornets held off the SuperSonics 109-102. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Hornets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
