After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Lakers outlasted the Jazz 117-101. The tempo dragged the Jazz into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Lakers looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; Jazz's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
