After Action Report

The Jazz rolled past the Hornets 114-78. The Hornets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Jazz carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; 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. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Jazz · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
