Monday’s 33-point loss to the Pacers at Vivint Smart Home Arena was not only the Jazz’s second-worst home defeat ever, and their sixth loss in their past eight games — it also seemed to serve as a flashpoint for some oppositional defiance.
Jae Crowder was not taking issue with anyone in particular, but with the idea that the 9-12 start is who the Jazz are.
“We’re in the thick of playing not like we want to play. I just feel like we can’t hang our heads. We gotta keep playing and keep grinding it out,” he said.
