After Action Report
The Jazz ran roughshod over the Suns 121-96. Jazz's scorers couldn't be contained. The Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss; Jazz's old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Suns looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Suns · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
