After Action Report
In Utah, the Jazz blew the doors off the Clippers 118-96. The tempo dragged the Clippers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Jazz carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; the Jazz pushed the pace until the other side broke. 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 broke open after the break.
