After Action Report
The Jazz took care of the Hornets 113-96. The Jazz got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Jazz; Jazz's defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. Jazz's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
