After Action Report
The Jazz outlasted the SuperSonics 98-87. Ugly basketball, but the Jazz did just enough. The Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss; Jazz's Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
