After Action Report

In Utah, the Jazz ran roughshod over the SuperSonics 116-91. The tempo dragged the SuperSonics into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Jazz's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Jazz's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
