After Action Report
The Jazz shocked the Clippers 115-113. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Jazz played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Jazz bent the defense out of shape from deep. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Clippers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Clippers · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
- Clippers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
