After what happened on Friday night, it was expected that Utah would come out on Saturday with a much more concentrated effort on both ends of the court.
The Jazz did that — and much more.
Jumping out to a double-digit lead at the end of the first quarter, Utah never looked back and cruised to a 127-105 victory over New Orleans — with the final score indicating a much closer game than reality.
"Things that were different tonight than last night are things that we need to have focus on and continue to make them important no matter who we're playing," head coach Quin Snyder said postgame.
