After Action Report
The Jazz downed the SuperSonics 97-87. The SuperSonics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Jazz. The SuperSonics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the SuperSonics bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. 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.
