After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Jazz ran roughshod over the Hornets 142-115. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. Jazz's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Jazz answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
