After Action Report
The Warriors handled the Hornets 113-103. The Hornets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Warriors. The Warriors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Warriors looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Warriors locker room is humming, and it showed. Warriors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
