After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets rolled past the Cavaliers 119-90. The Cavaliers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Cavaliers couldn't shake the cold spell. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
