After Action Report
The Hornets demolished the Nuggets 129-105. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hornets steamroller is in full effect right now. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Nuggets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
