SALT LAKE CITY – The Rockets could clang 3s and stay in the game for a while, certain they would take enough to get some to go.
They might have even been able to make a run without getting their shots going.
At some point, however, they would have to do something about the way the Jazz torched them on the other end. They never did.
The Jazz win with defense and they showed plenty of that, but they blew out the Rockets on Tuesday with their 11th win of the season, rolling to a 120-101 win in by far the top-scoring and best shooting game for the Jazz this season.
