HOUSTON — As Utah Jazz players dressed to exit the locker room at the Toyota Center following Wednesday’s 100-93 Game 5 elimination loss, the guys certainly weren’t happy with the outcome, but remain optimistic about the new era of Jazz basketball.
The Jazz have reached the postseason for three straight years under head coach Quin Snyder, twice advancing past the first round, but the front office will face some tough decisions this offseason as they look to get to the next level.
Utah lost to Houston, 4-1, but made it competitive in the last three after suffering blowout losses in Games 1 and 2 by 32 and 20 points, respectively.
