After Action Report
In Portland, the Jazz buried the Trail Blazers 123-77. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Trail Blazers. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- 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.
- Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
