why are the jazz garbage on the road?

[j.dizzle]

32-6 at home & 14-22 on the road..Are the refs in utah that bad? I just don't get how a pretty good team is this terrible on the road. 0-10 vs. west playoff teams on the road

[Ghazi]

Denver Dallas and Portland have similar disparities.

[Pelicans78]

They have no confidence on the road. Look how JR keeps abusing Korver.

[Pelicans78]

Denver Dallas and Portland have similar disparities.

But I believe Utah were bad last season as well.

[Double-Up]

But I believe Utah were bad last season as well.

And the season before, but I guess it balances out in the end.

[iggypop123]

they dont get their home cooking on the road so they suck

[Allanon]

The reason the Jazz don't play well on the road...they get called for fouls.

At home, the refs don't call as many fouls, on the road, the Jazz's style of play quickly gets them into foul trouble and breaks their rhythm.

[noob cake]

^^^^^

Nailed it; they play a very physical, sometimes cheap/disgraceful kind of basketball.

Once they get called on their fouls, their rythm breaks, and they lose.

[timvp]

The al ude in Denver and SLC plays a factor.

[CubanMustGo]

Cleveland: Home, 36-1; Away, 25-13.

This whole losing to +.500 teams has to be in the Jazz players heads now. I now fully expect them to lose all their remaining road game and will end up with the 8th team seed

Thats been the case for years, they have generally been a great home team and medicore on the road, even during the stockon/malone era. If every team got the home court treatment like the jazz then there would be no point in playing games bc we would already known the outcome..home team wins 95% of time

Denver and Utah have Al ude Acclimation going for them. Come down to sea level and that advantage is neutralized.

Wouldn't the extra oxygen give them a boost?

[poop]

they need the Spirit of the Mormons (indian legends spoke of this for centuries)- a legendary presence, comparable to the Force of star wars lore-which exists in the area of SLC, to lift them to greatness.

[Spursfan092120]

I'm praying the Spurs end up playing Utah in the first round.

White power.

[sribb43]

White power.

ya maybe if they had less minorities in the stands at their away games, they would perform better on the road

[poop]

haha have you guys noticed the crowd at their arena? all white. ALL white. and its the exact same kind. they all look exactly like each other haha. the jazz players must feel uneasy and get scared when they go other places and see ethnic folks in the stands hahahahhaha.

[sribb43]

How uncomfortable for D-Will

[sribb43]

[poop]

Lmao

[sribb43]

I saw one minority in all those pics....she is in the 3rd from the bottom and looked absolutely miserable
