The Utah Jazz will be facing off against the San Antonio Spurs again on Sunday night. Can anything from the 34-point beatdown earlier in the week be replicated?

Is it just me, or have the Utah Jazz played 26 games this season and somehow only faced off against five different teams? After playing the San Antonio Spurs in Salt Lake City just a few night ago, the Jazz will once again be pitted against the Spurs, this time in San Antonio.

If this game goes anything like the last matchup, we should be in for a treat, as the Jazz went off for a franchise record 20 3-pointers. That helped lead them to a 137-105 shellacking of the Spurs.

Now, facing off against the Spurs just five days later, the big question is whether or not they can replicate their dominant performance from just nights ago.

I don’t think it’s fair to expect another record shooting night for the team, but there are definitely some components of that game that they’ll need to replicate if they are going to earn a tough win on the road.

Let’s look at what the Jazz will need to do to officially get back above .500 for the season.
