After Action Report
In Utah, the Jazz squeaked past the Celtics 108-105. Jazz torched the Celtics on the offensive end. The Jazz ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. The Celtics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
