Seven games left in the regular season, all of them against teams with winning records. The stretch starts this evening with a visit from Deron Williams and the Utah Jazz.
The 46-30 Jazz are coming off an embarrassing home loss to the TWolves on Friday. They’re 1-16 on the road this season against teams currently with winning records. The lone win came in Philly way back on November 11. At least one Jazz blog doesn’t think the Jazz are a bad road team though.
Jazz are fully healthy apart from starting SF C.J. Miles, who dislocated his finger last game and is expected to miss a week.
The Jazz are 10-3 against the Hornets in the Williams/Paul era, but they trail pitifully in fan dancing…
