Why the Bulls’ Surprising Edge Could Shatter the Jazz’s Chances Tonight
The Jazz are one of the most interesting teams in the NBA to me. One night they could be the worst team in the league and lose by 50. Next, they can be competitive and seem like a team capable of beating anyone. The reality of this team is probably somewhere in between. Even their record suggests as much. The Jazz are just 14-25 for the season, but as in so many years’ past, the success has come when they play at home. I really don’t know if this is a result of them being a good home team, or the road teams hating coming to Utah. Perhaps it is a mix of both, but regardless of that, the success – or at least more success – has been there. The road is where the problem comes in, and that typically is because they only have role players. Sure, Lauri Markkanen is a solid piece, but I still am not convinced he is a true go-to option. They have assets and have drafted fairly well for the positions given. It all just needs to click, and this year is not the year.
