After Action Report
The Suns blew the doors off the Jazz 121-101. The breakneck pace played right into Suns' hands. The Suns carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Suns' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Jazz looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Suns · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
