After Action Report
The Hornets handled the Trail Blazers 108-96. The Trail Blazers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hornets. The Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Hornets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
