After Action Report

The Hornets pulled away from the SuperSonics 122-107. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Hornets; shots just aren't falling for the Hornets lately. The SuperSonics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
