The Hornets squeaked past the Spurs 119-117. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Hornets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
