After Action Report

The Jazz held off the Trail Blazers 134-126. The tempo dragged the Trail Blazers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Jazz answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Jazz's outside barrage was a constant threat. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
