After Action Report
The Hornets fended off the Trail Blazers 125-119. The Trail Blazers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Hornets; Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hornets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
