After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Jazz fended off the Lakers 129-121. Jazz's offense had its way with the Lakers. Jazz's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Lakers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. Jazz's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
