After Action Report
The Jazz ran roughshod over the Celtics 124-87. Jazz's scorers couldn't be contained. Jazz's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Jazz steamroller is in full effect right now. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.
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.
- Celtics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
