After Action Report
The Suns blew the doors off the Jazz 131-86. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Suns owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Suns · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Jazz · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
