Oh what a difference three and a half weeks make. Back on January 22nd the Utah Jazz fell in disheartening fashion to the lowly Atlanta Hawks to drop to 19-28, nine games below .500. It was an ugly effort that seemed to be the low point of a season that had already busted through rock bottom several times.
Yet, 23 days and a 10-game winning streak later, all of a sudden this Utah Jazz team looks energized, revitalized and primed for a playoff spot after all. They’re still in 10th place in the Western Conference, but after so many wins, the gap has obviously shrunk significantly.
