After Action Report
The Hornets buried the Pacers 122-81. The Hornets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Hornets; shots just aren't falling for the Hornets lately. Whispers of a Pacers locker-room rift aren't helping. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
