After Action Report
The Hornets ran roughshod over the Mavericks 118-85. Hornets' scorers couldn't be contained. The Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Mavericks' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Mavericks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
