It’s been exactly 11 months since the Raptors and Jazz last played (on New Year’s Day, 2019). Things have changed, slightly, since then; Marc Gasol joined the Raptors, the Jazz were bounced (easily) in Round 1, the Raptors won a title, Kawhi Leonard and Danny Green left Toronto, Ricky Rubio and Derrick Favors left Utah and Mike Conley arrived... and about six million other things happened around them too. Phew!
Even with all that change, you can see the parallels between where the Jazz are right now and where the Raptors had been the past several years: A good team, knocking on the door, trying to break through as a legitimate title contender.
