After Action Report
The Hornets squeaked past the Trail Blazers 99-94. The Trail Blazers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hornets. Hornets' outside barrage was a constant threat; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Trail Blazers. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
