After Action Report
The Hornets ran roughshod over the Nuggets 123-83. The Nuggets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Hornets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Nuggets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
