After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets snuck past the Cavaliers 97-95. Ugly basketball, but the Hornets did just enough. Hornets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Cavaliers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
