After Action Report

The Jazz ran roughshod over the Bucks 112-90. The tempo dragged the Bucks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Jazz's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Jazz carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Bucks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bucks · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
  • Bucks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Bucks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Jazz · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
