After Action Report

In Utah, the Jazz demolished the Knicks 119-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. The Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss; Jazz's defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Knicks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. It broke open after the break.

  • Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Knicks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
