After Action Report
In Utah, the Celtics outlasted the Jazz 123-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. The Jazz carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Jazz's veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
