Case in point: If the Spurs beat New Orleans today, San Antonio would have cemented their grasp of the number two slot in the Western Conference playoffs, and the Hornets would have been pushed a full game behind the Jazz into the number seven slot. Granted, there is still a lot of action before the first round kicks off next month, but anything that helps keep the Jazz away from The Alamo or Hollywood in the first round is a good thing. All we needed was a little help from Tim Duncan.
You remember the Spurs, right Jazz fans? That team that hasn't given us a road victory in about a decade? Yeah, them. Well, they lost.In the meantime, we gear up for a nasty close to the season, one that will be extraordinarily painful if we don't figure out how to start winning on the road quick. I don't know whether it feels better or worse to know that the last few road losses were close games (aside from the Orlando gaffe). All I know is we don't have any excuses anymore. Everyone's healthy and ready to go.
Here endeth the lesson. Go Jazz.
