After Action Report
In Boston, the Jazz took care of the Celtics 115-97. Jazz's offense had its way with the Celtics. Jazz's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the Jazz stayed locked in. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Jazz · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
