After Action Report

The Jazz ran roughshod over the Timberwolves 134-111. Jazz controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Jazz's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Jazz played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. 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.
