After Action Report
The Warriors handled the Hornets 108-97. The Hornets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Warriors. The Warriors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Warriors locker room is humming, and it showed. Warriors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
