After Action Report
The Hornets ran roughshod over the Heat 128-100. The Hornets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Hornets' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
- Hornets · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Heat · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
