After Action Report
The Jazz ran roughshod over the Celtics 116-89. The Jazz's lockdown unit choked off Celtics' offense. The Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Jazz; Jazz's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. The Jazz rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
