After Action Report

In Orlando, the Hornets outlasted the Magic 115-108. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Hornets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; the Magic answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
