After Action Report
The Spurs survived the Hornets 113-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Spurs cashed in. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Hornets' outside barrage was a constant threat. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
