After Action Report
The Hornets squeaked past the Pistons 127-122. The Pistons had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hornets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
