After Action Report
The Warriors buried the Hornets 120-97. The Warriors got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Warriors couldn't shake the cold spell; Warriors' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hornets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Hornets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Hornets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
