After Action Report
The Hornets squeaked past the Spurs 107-105. Hornets torched the Spurs on the offensive end. The Spurs answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Spurs' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
