NBA Playoffs: Utah Jazz Have to Avoid Counting Chickens Before They Hatch
Even though the Utah Jazz are in good shape to close out their first-round series, they have to avoid the trap of operating under the assumption that Game 6 will be an easy victory.
After winning Game 5 in Los Angeles and taking a commanding 3-2 lead back to Salt Lake City, there’s no questioning that the Utah Jazz are feeling good about winning their first round playoff bout against the LA Clippers.
Not only do the numbers support Utah’s chances, as I went over in detail yesterday, but the Jazz’s momentum combined with the energy they’ll have playing on their home court and the high level of play they’ve displayed lately are all great signs for winning Game 6 tomorrow.
