After Action Report

The Hornets downed the Jazz 104-93. The Jazz couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hornets. The Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Hornets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Jazz rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
