After Action Report
In a track meet, the Magic blew the doors off the Jazz 126-106. The breakneck pace played right into Magic's hands. Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Jazz owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Jazz · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
