After Action Report
The Hornets survived the Knicks 93-90. The Hornets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Hornets. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
