After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Hornets demolished the Cavaliers 106-83. The Hornets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Shots just aren't falling for the Hornets lately; the Hornets bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a Cavaliers locker-room rift aren't helping. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
