After Action Report
The Lakers outlasted the Jazz 123-111. Lakers' offense had its way with the Jazz. Jazz's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Jazz owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them. Jazz's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
