After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets squeaked past the Clippers 98-96. Ugly basketball, but the Hornets did just enough. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
