After Action Report
In a track meet, the Hornets buried the Trail Blazers 127-107. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Hornets looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
