After Action Report
The Spurs pulled away from the Hornets 104-91. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Spurs bent the defense out of shape from deep; the Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Hornets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Hornets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
