Kemba Walker scored 25 points, Nicolas Batum scored all 17 points in the second half, and Jeremy Lamb and Frank Kaminsky scored 22 and 15 points off the bench respectively as the Hornets cruised to a 123-112 win over the Nets.
The Hornets looked lethargic and unfocused on the defensive end early in the game. The Nets first 12 points were all scored in the paint. The Hornets were able to hold serve, and then an interesting substitution happened. Frank Kaminsky was the first sub off the bench, presumably in an attempt to pull Jarrett Allen out of the paint.
