After Action Report

In Utah, the Jazz squeaked past the Celtics 120-115. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Jazz; Jazz's outside barrage was a constant threat. 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.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
