After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets blew the doors off the Pistons 122-100. Hornets' scorers couldn't be contained. The Hornets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Pistons' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
