After Action Report
The Hornets ran roughshod over the Pacers 120-100. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Pacers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Whispers of a Pacers locker-room rift aren't helping. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
