After Action Report

The Jazz buried the Spurs 117-93. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. The Jazz owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Jazz's Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Spurs locker-room rift aren't helping. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
