After Action Report
The Jazz handled the Trail Blazers 125-110. The tempo dragged the Trail Blazers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Jazz's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Jazz owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. The Jazz rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
