After Action Report

The Jazz survived the SuperSonics 105-101. Ugly basketball, but the Jazz did just enough. Jazz's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Jazz's Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. The SuperSonics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • SuperSonics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
