After Action Report
In a track meet, the Hornets blew the doors off the Pistons 121-81. The tempo dragged the Pistons into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Hornets pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Pistons couldn't shake the cold spell. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
