After Action Report
In Utah, the Jazz took care of the SuperSonics 106-96. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Jazz's veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; the SuperSonics couldn't shake the cold spell. The SuperSonics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
