After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets ran roughshod over the Nets 124-76. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Nets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
