There’s no debating that the Utah Jazz have been on quite a tear of late as they’ve rattled off nine straight victories. However, while it’s been good to see them take care of business, there’s also no denying that the strength of opponent has been pretty low during the run. The Jazz have only played two playoff-caliber teams during that stretch and only one with a winning record in the LA Clippers.
Their upcoming opponent still isn’t one that has a record above .500, but there’s no question that the Brooklyn Nets are a dangerous squad and also one that is currently firmly in the playoff mix in the Eastern Conference.
