The Utah Jazz will seek a small measure of revenge as they take on the Los Angeles Clippers tonight in Salt Lake City. This will be the Jazz’s first matchup against the Clippers since they beat the Jazz in 6-games in last season’s playoff matchup breaking Jazz fans’ hearts and ending Utah’s season.
The Jazz had been up 2-0 and had Jazz fans fantasizing about a Western Conference Finals appearance but between injuries and lack of adjustments the Clippers came storming back winning 4-straight and ending the Jazz’s best season in years.
All of that is in the past now and the Jazz are focused on this season, but that series was one of the biggest factors into the Jazz’s offseason moves of parting ways with Favors and adding Whiteside and Gay.
