After Action Report

The Hornets rolled past the Suns 119-87. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Hornets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; 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. It broke open after the break.
