Before the All-Star Break the Utah Jazz were left with the sting of defeat as they grasped defeat out of the jaws of victory in Los Angeles against the Lakers. Players, coaches, and fans alike had to sit on that loss for the whole All-Star break, but those feelings have quickly faded as the Jazz have won back-to-back close, clutch contests versus possible Western Conference playoff matchups in the Mavericks and the Suns.
Tonight, the Jazz take on a different kind of challenge as they head into Houston to take on the Houston Rockets.
