After Action Report
The Jazz squeaked past the Knicks 100-96. The Jazz won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss; the Knicks pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
