After Action Report

The Jazz buried the Nets 122-98. The Jazz got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Jazz owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Jazz's outside barrage was a constant threat. The Nets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Nets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
