In Utah, the Jazz demolished the Rockets 137-100. Jazz torched the Rockets on the offensive end. The Jazz played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Rockets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. 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. It was over by halftime.
