After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets blew the doors off the Trail Blazers 124-94. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Hornets steamroller is in full effect right now; Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. 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.
