The Utah Jazz continue to tear through their opposition as they won their second straight game in blowout fashion on Friday when they defeated the Charlotte Hornets 109-92. This victory marked Utah’s eighth straight win and their 13th victory in the last 14 games. It was also enough to propel them to fourth in the West, just a half-game behind the second-place Denver Nuggets and third-place LA Clippers.
Sure, during this run the Jazz have largely only played lackluster opponents. But the fact of the matter is that you can only play the teams in front of you and the Jazz have done exceptionally well at that.
