After Action Report
The Jazz held off the Nets 95-87. Jazz torched the Nets on the offensive end. The Jazz owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Jazz are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Nets locker-room rift aren't helping. Nets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
