The Utah Jazz finally found some consistency going 6-3 in this stretch of nine games. Although they suffered a terrible blowout to the Memphis Grizzlies on the back end of a back to back, they were able to bounce back with a convincing home win over the Lakers.

The defense which we saw return on the four game road trip against the Cavaliers, Celtics, Knicks, and Pistons was legit. Only one opponent over this two week span scored over 110 points, that being the Los Angeles Lakers.

Given that they are led by LeBron James, who leads the league in assists, and that they have a top five offense in the association, there’s not much shame in giving up 120 points to the Lakers.

This was a much needed breath of fresh air given that the team had been on a roller coaster of winning 4-5 games, then losing 4-5 games since late January.

Now there’s only nine more games left on the schedule. Can the Jazz buckle up and finish ahead of some of their rivals in the Western Conference? The Nuggets and Rockets both went 5-2 during this stretch, and the heat has reached a boiling point in the standings.
