After Action Report

The Jazz snuck past the Celtics 126-124 in overtime. The Celtics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss; Jazz's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. Jazz's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
