On November 17, I sat in my living room watching the Utah Jazz take on the Chicago Bulls on national television. As the game progressed, I began to grow increasingly frustrated and shocked at the Jazz’s inability to hit an open jumper. The Jazz would go on to lose 85-77.
The Bulls game turned out to be game two of a four-game losing streak. You knew things would be alright, but it still felt like everything was falling apart. The Jazz couldn’t score against the Bulls and then were unable to defend the paint against the Rockets and Nuggets.
