After Action Report
The Jazz handled the SuperSonics 102-91. The SuperSonics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Jazz. The Jazz carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics. Jazz's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
