After Action Report
The Hornets snuck past the Lakers 115-112. The Lakers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Lakers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Lakers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
