After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Jazz ran roughshod over the Lakers 117-96. Jazz torched the Lakers on the offensive end. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Jazz; the Jazz pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Jazz · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
