Through nearly two months of the NBA season, the predicted offensive explosion from the Utah Jazz hasn’t come, yet. The Jazz ranked 22nd in the league offensively through 26 games, nearly a third of the season.
But the last five games were without Mike Conley available, and generally, the Jazz have been worse without him on the floor. Without him, their offensive rating is just 102.9 points per 100 possessions, but with him, they bump up to 107.6 points per 100 possessions.
“They have more offense than any other team in the league. We have a lot of offense; they have a ton of offense,” Clifford said.
