The Big Picture
We all pretty much know the deal with this team. At this point: scrap out a few more wins to keep the 4 seed, get Kawhi healthy, and pray for favorable postseason matchups.
The Antagonist
The Jazz were a solid team to start the season, but trading away several key players before the deadline signaled the tank was on, and boy is it. The Jazz have lost 10 games in a row, are starting three rookies, and sitting nearly all their vets. Their young guys are talented and hungry, and all have shown flashes – but this is a game the Jazz are preparing to lose, and one the Clippers need to win.
