After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets ran roughshod over the Pacers 130-89. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Pacers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Pacers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. It was over by halftime.

- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
