The Jazz outlasted the Rockets 113-105. Jazz's offense had its way with the Rockets. The Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Rockets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. Jazz's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
