After Action Report

The Hornets rolled past the Hawks 123-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Hornets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Hornets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
