After Action Report

In New Orleans, the Nets blew the doors off the Hornets 134-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. The Nets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 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.
  • Nets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
