After Action Report

The Jazz survived the Pistons 107-105. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Jazz's old heads steadied the ship in the swings; second-chance points piled up for the Pistons. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. Jazz's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
