After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Jazz handled the Hornets 117-107. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. Jazz's veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. Jazz's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
