Utah Jazz vs Denver Nuggets: Recap and final score

The Jazz visited Denver tonight looking to lose their 5th straight game. There was a time last month when tanking proponents were nervous that Will Hardy and the young guns would surprise some teams to whom they should be losing. They even went 2-2 in one stretch, beating the mighty Lakers and the almost equally-mighty Houston Rockets. Since then, the Jazz have put up an impressive 3-16 record, seemingly in the driver’s seat to land the NBA’s #1 lottery spot. The worries about surprising good teams have been all but put to rest. They are certainly putting up respectable first halves, but they consistently get absolutely dump-trucked in second halves, which is what happened tonight.
