After Action Report

The Hornets rolled past the Mavericks 113-75. Hornets' offense had its way with the Mavericks. Second-chance points piled up for the Hornets; Mavericks' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
