After Action Report
In a track meet, the Hornets squeaked past the Timberwolves 115-111. Hornets controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
