Ask any Utah Jazz fan about their most memorable experience with the Players’ Tribune and they’ll probably shudder slightly as they recall one of the more traumatizing experiences in Jazz fan history. I don’t want to awaken too many bad memories, so for any of you who aren’t sure what I’m talking about, just do a quick Google search of “Thank You, Utah.”
Fortunately, not only have the memories of that fateful 4th of July day largely been erased by an incredible 2017-18 Utah Jazz season that now has them holding a 2-1 lead in their first-round series against the Oklahoma City Thunder, but on Monday Jazz fans were blessed with a much more pleasant Players’ Tribune piece, one that will hopefully help them not shudder whenever they hear the media platform’s name.
