After Action Report

In Utah, the Jazz ran roughshod over the Trail Blazers 118-93. The Trail Blazers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Jazz owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Jazz's outside barrage was a constant threat. The Trail Blazers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Trail Blazers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
