If I had gone into a coma just prior to the start of the 2019-20 NBA season, then woken up today and someone told me that the Utah Jazz were off to an 18-11 start, I’d be feeling pretty excited about the team and its prognosis. Between all the new faces they were introducing this year and the tough span of schedule they had to endure during the first 25 games of the year, a .621 win percentage would feel pretty nice without any context.
However, for better or for worse, I’ve been wide awake for all 29 Utah Jazz games to start the season.
