After Action Report

The Jazz buried the Rockets 122-77. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. Jazz's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Jazz stayed locked in. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Jazz · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
