After Action Report
The Jazz ran roughshod over the Lakers 120-93. Jazz's offense had its way with the Lakers. The Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss; the Lakers couldn't shake the cold spell. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. Jazz's 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
- Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
