After Action Report
In Utah, the Jazz ran roughshod over the Suns 125-82. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. The Jazz answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Suns owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. Suns' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
