After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets rolled past the Rockets 115-93. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Hornets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Hornets bent the defense out of shape from deep. Rockets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.
