After Action Report
The Spurs demolished the Hornets 120-80. Spurs torched the Hornets on the offensive end. The Spurs carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; shots just aren't falling for the Hornets lately. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hornets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
