After Action Report
The Hornets rolled past the Mavericks 131-97. The Hornets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hornets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
