After Action Report

The Jazz took care of the Trail Blazers 118-104. The Trail Blazers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Trail Blazers. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Trail Blazers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Trail Blazers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
