After Action Report
In New York, the Hornets squeaked past the Knicks 104-100. The Hornets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Hornets steamroller is in full effect right now; Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Hornets · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
