After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets held off the Clippers 104-98. Ugly basketball, but the Hornets did just enough. The Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Hornets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
