After Action Report
The Warriors blew the doors off the Hornets 119-90. Warriors' offense had its way with the Hornets. Warriors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Warriors owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Warriors locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Warriors per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
