After Action Report
The Hornets demolished the Magic 103-77. Every possession went the Hornets way. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hornets came in with something to prove after a loss. Whispers of a Magic locker-room rift aren't helping. It was over by halftime.
