As much as Utah Jazz fans had hoped and dreamed that their team would be the one to finally give the Golden State Warriors a challenge and perhaps even a run for their money, that’s been far from the case so far. After two games inside Oracle Arena, the Jazz quickly find themselves in a 2-0 hole to the defending Western Conference Champions.
And although the final scores of both games were quite similar with Utah losing by 12 in Game 1 and 11 in Game 2, the dynamic of each contest couldn’t have been more different. In the first outing, Golden State dominated the whole way and Utah only just managed to hedge the deficit at the end of the game with both teams’ starters on the bench.
