After Action Report

In a track meet, the Jazz edged the Hornets 123-114. The tempo dragged the Hornets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss; 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.
