Utah Jazz: retaining tough defense is key to upcoming week

Recently the Utah Jazz have taken advantage of a soft schedule, winning nine straight and 14 of their last 15 games.

Several things that were lost from the Jazz’s identity crisis in November have been found as a result of this winning streak. They have found a go-to guy to lead the bench unit off the trade market in Jordan Clarkson, they have found their staunch defense that was lost on the infamous road trip over Thanksgiving, and they have found the joy of a heavy ball movement offense.

Over the past week they won a tight game over the New Orleans Pelicans thanks to a controversial no-call in the final seconds.
