Andy Larsen 1. Jazz’s defense dies in the 4th quarter for the 2nd consecutive game. This is a little bit of a worrying trend now. After allowing 36 points to the Timberwolves in the 4th quarter of Monday’s game, the Jazz allowed...

Andy Larsen 1. Trey Burke shoots the Jazz out of the game. Trey Burke’s 4-22 shooting performance is really bad. No other player had shot more than 22 shots and less than 4 makes this season, until Monta Ellis did it last night that...

Andy Larsen 1. The Jazz got beat by the #1 offense and the #1 defense. That the Jazz lost to the Warriors tonight was no surprise: Golden State is by far the league’s best team. They have the #1 offense and the #1 defense in the league...

Andy Larsen 1. The Pistons’ effort earned plaudits from Quin Snyder. Before he even answered a question, and immediately upon taking the microphone postgame, Quin Snyder began by complimenting the Pistons’ fight. “That team...

Andy Larsen 1. The Utah Jazz are a FORCE right now. They’re the youngest team in the NBA. They start 2 rookies. Their old starting PG and new 6th man, Trey Burke, can’t buy a basket right now. They have 7 rookies on the roster,...

Andy Larsen 1. Jazz’s inconsistency enough to win game against terrible Knicks squad. Tonight’s game was interesting. Statistically, the Jazz did all of the right things. On defense, they allowed their opponents to score...

Ben Dowsett 1. Two matchups with Boston this year have exposed some flaws in Utah’s team construct. This game will be most discussed for the events in the final minute, but the other 47, combined with a January home loss to these same...
