After Action Report
The Jazz ran roughshod over the Knicks 134-89. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Jazz; Jazz's veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Knicks locker-room rift aren't helping. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
