After Action Report
The Hornets rolled past the Knicks 110-70. The Knicks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Hornets came in with something to prove after a loss; Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Knicks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Knicks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It was over by halftime.
