After Action Report

The Jazz took care of the Nets 128-116. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. The Jazz owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
