HOUSTON — Quin Snyder looked no worse for the wear in skinny jeans, a golf shirt and smoky gray leather sneakers on Monday. Even in his off-day clothes, he appeared put together in a careless, affluent way.
An eyeball test doesn’t show it, but it has been a harrowing week for the Jazz coach. His team played Friday in Salt Lake and 40 hours later was getting a righteous thrashing in Houston. But now that the Jazz have had nearly three days’ rest, it should be a different team for Wednesday’s Game 2.
Problem is, he’ll be facing the same Houston team that has defeated him five times this season, by an average of 17 points.
