After Action Report

In New Orleans, the Hornets shocked the Heat 119-98. The Hornets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Hornets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
