The Jazz are playing their preseason opener Saturday against the Perth Wildcats of the Australian NBL.
Coach Quin Snyder acknowledged earlier in the week that they weren’t even going to discuss specifics about Perth until Friday.
With Snyder pointing out that Perth will do things that pretty much no NBA teams will, there’s not a lot to be gained from spending much time analyzing this particular opponent. Rather, that time is better devoted to focusing on what the Jazz need to improve upon.
Following the general optimism and excitement stemming from the first practices, and the first scrimmages of this year’s training camp, Snyder was clearly a bit annoyed Thursday by increasing sloppiness.
