After Action Report
The Trail Blazers blew the doors off the Jazz 118-81. The Trail Blazers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Trail Blazers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; fresh off a statement win, the Jazz stayed locked in. Trail Blazers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

- Jazz · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Trail Blazers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
