How the Utah Jazz became the hottest team in the NBA during 10-game win streak

SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah Jazz’s flight landed in Atlanta around 5:25 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 21.

There were no flight issues, guys were able to rest, but the team just didn’t have it that Monday night against the Atlanta Hawks.

Utah trailed by as many as 26 before falling to the Hawks 104-90 in Philips Arena.

Guys looked flat. Defensively, they broke down. They shot 43.4 percent from the field. And just couldn’t hang with the Eastern Conference’s worst team.

To put things in layman’s terms, the Jazz looked terrible.
