After Action Report

In a track meet, the Hornets buried the Raptors 143-116. Hornets' scorers couldn't be contained. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Raptors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
