After Action Report

In a track meet, the Hornets survived the Rockets 113-110. The breakneck pace played right into Hornets' hands. The Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Hornets pushed the pace until the other side broke.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
