After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Trail Blazers outlasted the Hornets 105-99. Every possession went the Trail Blazers way. Trail Blazers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Hornets' outside barrage was a constant threat. Whispers of a Hornets locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
