After Action Report

The Jazz ran roughshod over the Nets 119-96. The Jazz won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Jazz's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Jazz looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

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