The Golden State Warriors and the Utah Jazz are polar opposites in some ways. One team still contends for a playoff spot among the titans of the Western Conference.

However, the one glaring aspect in which the Warriors and Jazz are polar opposites is how they are ranked defensively. Going into last night’s game, the Warriors were the worst defensive team in the league, with a defensive rating of 116.
