The Utah Jazz are basically a quarter of the way through their season, and it’s difficult to know what type of team Utah Jazz General Manager Dennis Lindsey has on his hands. Before the Rudy Gobert injury, it appeared Utah was committed to the Ricky Rubio, Derrick Favors, and Rudy Gobert all on the floor at the same time experiment. With an injury to Rudy Gobert, that flung Jonas Jerebko into the starting lineup; this all but solved Utah’s offensive woes with the Jazz’s defense paying the price.
Utah had a better week in Week 6 going 2-1 with wins over two Eastern Conference foes, the Chicago Bulls and Milwaukee Bucks, and a loss against the Philadelphia 76ers.
