After Action Report

The Hornets blew the doors off the 76ers 130-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Hornets. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
