After Action Report
The Hornets ran roughshod over the Nets 124-81. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. Hornets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
