After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Pacers handled the Hornets 117-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. The Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Pacers' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Hornets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
