After Action Report
The Hornets blew the doors off the Nets 134-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Hornets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Hornets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
