The Utah Jazz fell behind by 23 to the Brooklyn Nets as they had an awful first three quarters offensively. However, consistent to where Will Hardy’s team has been all season they fought back got within a point and had a fleeting chance at the buzzer to beat the Brooklyn Nets. However, the game was a perfect example of the fight and grit of the Utah Jazz without the fire power needed to be able to hang for 48 minutes of an NBA game.
David Locke, radio voice of the Utah Jazz and Jazz NBA Insider, takes a look at one of the key indicators of the Jazz lack of firepower and it is the first quarter struggles of the team and how first quarters are actually a great indicator of success in the NBA.
Then Locke looks at the wild west and how it is all breaking out plus a late game watch of the Portland Trailblazers and the Minnesota Timberwolves.

So the jazz suck now and will for the next 5 years go Danny
Much better season than I expected, especially after moving so many key players. We have financial flexibility, draft picks and players who want to learn and win. More changes are inevitable, but the future looks bright.

It was an interesting season. The Jazz suprised everyone with a great start to the season. Then the team became what I thought that they would be a competitive team that is right in there until the end. Sometimes they win sometimes they lose. Then at the trade deadline we sold that team to become the team that we are now. A team too good to tank but not able to compete due to a lack of talent. If we start next year without any significant changes. This will be a start to a long rebuilding years. If we want to make that 3 year promise then we have to hit in the draft and make a significant move to accelerate the building process.
Jazz have been playing the last month without 2-3 starters most nights. Even the best, deepest teams will struggle in those circumstances. The fact the Jazz have kept most games close and even won some of them is amazing and a testament to the coaching preparation of Will Hardy.
The problem with the logic that other teams donāt have to win Dave because they have secured post season position can actually hurt opposing teams that play them. Why? Those teams start to play role players and no namers that often play harder causing a desperate team like the wolves to miscalculate what it takes to win. Hard to plan for much like blazers playing newbies. All these players want contracts or cash šµ
Am I the only one who now thinks Minnesota would be better like 10 games better if they never made the Gobert trade? When they 1st made the trade I honestly thought they would be top 3 or 4 in the west .
