After Action Report

The Hornets upended the Hawks 119-103. The Hawks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Hornets steamroller is in full effect right now; Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.

  • Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Hornets · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
