1. All in all, it was a very nice bounce back game for the Utah Jazz.  A young team is going to have its share of ups and downs. After a pair of stellar games versus two contenders, Wednesday’s horrible loss to the Los...

1. An 18-4 Lakers run in the 4th quarter lost the game for the Jazz. From 9:34 to 3:39 left in the 4th, the Lakers went on an 18-4 run that won them the game. 18 points is a high, but not ridiculous, amount of...

1. Gordon Hayward’s big game made the difference. Hayward’s had a run of good games of the last 2 weeks, and tonight’s was no exception. He scored 30 points on 13-23 shooting (including 3-8 from 3), he only took...
