After Action Report

The Jazz snuck past the Celtics 122-120. The better team simply showed up tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; Celtics' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. Jazz's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
