After Action Report
The Hornets buried the Spurs 134-79. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Spurs are in a full-on tailspin. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Spurs · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
