After Action Report
The Hornets pulled away from the Warriors 97-78. The Hornets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Warriors couldn't shake the cold spell. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. The Warriors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
