After Action Report

The Hornets pulled away from the Warriors 118-104. The Warriors had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Hornets' positional balance gave them a synergy edge; shots just aren't falling for the Warriors lately. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Balanced Five A starting five that covers every position with even talent finds a synergy edge.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Warriors · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
