After Action Report

The Hornets survived the Jazz 106-105. Hornets torched the Jazz on the offensive end. The Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Hornets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
