After Action Report
In a track meet, the Jazz took care of the Rockets 124-106. The tempo dragged the Rockets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss; the Jazz pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
