After a slow start to the season with a 4-4 record in the first eight games, Utah Jazz has not lost since then.
It is impressive that Jazz is now 14: 4 at the Western Conference with the best record in the entire NBA after winning ten games in a row. This comes on the shoulders of Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell, who have shown they are worth the massive contracts they signed this off-season.
Following her last win, Rudy Gobert spoke to the media about the success Utah has seen recently.
“I really think it’s probably the first time since I’ve been here that I’ve seen so much focus from everyone in this locker room. I really feel like we’re playing for something bigger and that we’re on a mission. “
Gobert and Jazz definitely look like they’re on a mission. On the offensive, they are the second best three-point shooting team in the league at 0.397, which is a huge advantage in the modern NBA. They looked just as good on the defensive and achieved the third best defensive rating in the league. Additionally, Utah is also one of the best rebounding teams out there.
These things are a recipe for success in the way basketball is played today. Gobert tweeted that jazz is only just beginning, which is clearly shown on the pitch with the effort and hectic pace with which this team plays. While the Los Angeles Lakers are still the favorite in the west, the Utah Jazz are trying to change that narrative.
