After Action Report
The Lakers edged the Jazz 97-91. The Jazz couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Lakers. The Jazz are in a full-on tailspin; Jazz's defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Jazz looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
