In Phoenix, the Jazz rolled past the Suns 135-114. The tempo dragged the Suns into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Jazz pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Suns carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
