Much has been said about the Jazz’s recent poor stretch of play, and rightfully so. The Jazz have been very bad in their most recent stretch where they’ve gone 1 and 6. In that span, according to NBA.com, they’ve had the 26th ranked offense and the 26th ranked defense. Woof.
A team that has played that badly surely would be out of it by now, right? Well, the Jazz are still 12-10 and if the playoffs started today they would be the 6th seed.
Look, I get it. This Jazz team wasn’t supposed to just be good, they were supposed to be great, maybe even a title contender.
