After Action Report
The Hornets buried the 76ers 129-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Hornets couldn't shake the cold spell; Hornets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
