After Action Report

In Utah, the Jazz took care of the Bobcats 99-88. The Jazz won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Jazz bent the defense out of shape from deep; Bobcats' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Bobcats looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Bobcats rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Bobcats · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bobcats · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Bobcats · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
