After Action Report

The Hornets downed the SuperSonics 108-96. Hornets torched the SuperSonics on the offensive end. The Hornets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
