After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Bobcats buried the Hornets 120-99. Bobcats controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Bobcats answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Bobcats' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Whispers of a Hornets locker-room rift aren't helping. Hornets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bobcats · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
