After Action Report
The Hornets blew the doors off the Bulls 113-92. Hornets' starting five clicked while the Bulls looked disjointed. The Hornets came in with something to prove after a loss; the Hornets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
