After Action Report
In Golden State, the Warriors edged the Hornets 100-94. The Warriors won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Hornets came in with something to prove after a loss; Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hornets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Warriors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

- Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
