After Action Report

The Jazz survived the Spurs 83-80. Ugly basketball, but the Jazz did just enough. The Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss; the Spurs came in with something to prove after a loss. The Spurs rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
