After Action Report

The Suns ran roughshod over the Jazz 128-84. The Jazz had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Suns carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Suns · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
