After Action Report

The Hornets demolished the SuperSonics 109-89. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the SuperSonics carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
