After Action Report
The Hornets buried the Warriors 130-89. Hornets' offense had its way with the Warriors. The Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Hornets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
