After Action Report
The Spurs took care of the Hornets 123-106. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Spurs cashed in. Spurs' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- 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.
