After Action Report

The Jazz pulled away from the Clippers 107-97. Execution down the stretch made the difference. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Jazz; Clippers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Clippers locker-room rift aren't helping. Jazz's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Clippers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Jazz · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
