Utah Jazz: Tony Bradley would have been playoff X-Factor

We’ve said it before, and we will say it again.

The Utah Jazz desperately need consistency from the backup bigs if they want to succeed in a playoff form. And that squarely falls on the shoulders of Tony Bradley.

Sure, Ed Davis is still on the roster, and they’ve experimented with Juwan Morgan or Royce O’Neale playing center for small stretches. But the Jazz front office and coaching staff haven’t invested nearly as much stock into those three players as they have with TB.

He’s basically been learning how to play backup center since November, and the Jazz showed no hint of shopping for a backup big at the trade deadline or buyout market.
