After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets fended off the Cavaliers 112-105. Hornets' offense had its way with the Cavaliers. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
