After Action Report
The Jazz ran roughshod over the Nuggets 128-96. The breakneck pace played right into Jazz's hands. Second-chance points piled up for the Jazz; the Jazz played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Jazz · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
