"(Winning with bad shooting is a) sign of a good team," Hornets head coach Charles Lee said about his side's offence’s ability to remain afloat through poor shot-making.
"It shows a sign of maturity to not be so dependent on making shots... between a great next-play mentality and controlling the controllables, our guys have shown great maturity to understand whatever the game is calling for. They're trying to impact winning as much as possible."
