After Action Report
In San Antonio, the Hornets demolished the Spurs 118-85. Hornets' offense had its way with the Spurs. The Hornets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Spurs utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.
