After Action Report
In Utah, the Jazz rolled past the Pistons 117-96. Jazz's offense had its way with the Pistons. Jazz's stars took over and bent the game to their will; the Jazz pushed the pace until the other side broke. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
