After Action Report
In Utah, the Jazz fended off the Clippers 125-119. The breakneck pace played right into Jazz's hands. Fresh off a statement win, the Jazz stayed locked in; the Jazz pushed the pace until the other side broke. Jazz's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
