After Action Report

The Jazz edged the SuperSonics 126-117. The SuperSonics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Jazz; the Jazz played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. SuperSonics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
