      7 straight on the road.

      Can't even believe it.
      So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.

        They didn't ever win 7 in a row during the Stockton/Malone days.

          Fess is about the biggest human I've ever seen. I'd love to see what he could do 20 lbs lighter.

            It was funny to hear Portland's fans chant "Defense!" in the middle of that huge run by the Jazz.
            Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

              Technically, you're right. They didn't win 7 in a row with Stock/Malone. Those two were on the team that won 15 consecutive road games in '95-'96.



              It was during that same streak that Felton Spencer tore his Achilles tendon in a game against the Celtics.

                I should have clarified - it was extremely rare for them to have ever won 7 road games in a row even during the Stock/Malone days. The Jazz, even when they were at their best, have always been a bad road team.

                  Very true. I think those Finals teams were only close to .500 on the road at best.

                    0.500 on the road is a good benchmark to divide the good from the pretenders. The great teams surpass the 0.667+ on the road.

                      Hero Team of the Week: Utah (4-0) -- Four road wins, starting with a back-to-back in Houston and New Orleans, and then a trip across the country.
                      No moment of Utah's 17-2 stretch can top Sundiata Gaines' game-winner to beat the Cavs, but Sunday's comeback in Portland was as impressive as it gets. The Jazz have won seven straight on the road, holding their opponents to 39 percent shooting.


                      If they can come back from 25 points down in Portland when D-Will is still seething about the Ronnie Brewer trade to Memphis, just wow. The Jazz are 17-2 since Jan. 9, when they were 10th in the West.

                        I'll admit, I started watching the Olympics when the number hit 25 but my conscience got the better of me and I only missed a couple of minutes. Jazz are tied in the loss column with Denver (game back in head-to-head though) and coming up fast.

                            I started watching Desperate Houswives, until I got a text saying "They've almost come back". So I only saw the last minute of regulation and OT. The ex-stripper that just moved onto Wisteria Lane is a lesbian!

                              I wonder how many of those deficits were highest in the 2nd half. That really was a great comeback.
