Have the Jazz ever gone undefeated for an entire month?

There's a real chance they could do that in January. Their most difficult remaining games in January are against the Pacers (24-15), Mavericks (23-15), Rockets (25-12), and Nuggets (26-11). However, all of those games sans the game against the Nuggets are at HOME. The rest of their games this month are against teams with losing records. Utah is going to be favored in every single game except for the one in Denver on January 30th (on the 2nd night of a back-to-back). I don't know if they'll do it for that very reason however. That being said, if they don't lose until that game, they'd break the all-time Jazz winning streak (currently 15 games). If they go undefeated until then, the Jazz would be on a 17-game winning streak. Thoughts?

Heads up, you posted this in the general forum. That's why you got no responses and hence my "oof".

The short answer is no. They've never gone undefeated through a whole month. The longest streak in jazz history is 15 games in Nov and Dec in 1996, then again in March-April of 1997.

The longest streak under Quin was 11 games between Jan and Feb 14, 2018

Ty Corbins longest streak as a coach was 6 games in March of 2012.

There is some buzz out there that Zion is going to play on Thursday.

That coupled with the fact that Utah stole one in NO last week, the Pelicans are going to be pumped - my guess is the streak ends on Thursday.

"It's just six games!"
 
They are now cursed based upon this thread so it for sure won't happen. Either way, the Jazz schedule the end of this month is tough. They are not going to make it through without a loss and probably a few losses coming this month.
 
If GSW wasn't hurt this would be a brutal stretch of games From Jan 20th to Feb 26th:

IND, @GSW, DAL, HOU, @SAS, @DVN, @POR, DNV, POR, @HOU, @DAL, MIA, SAS, HOU, PHX, BOS
in that 16 game stretch only GSW and PHX is not a good teams but PHX had been tough early in the season.

Also about NOP and Zion:
 
Well, considering how it goes getting tougher now (even losing records teams as the Nets, Kings and Pelicans should be harder to go to than Pistons, Hornets, Knicks, etc) i'd be both surprised and really pleased to get undefeated all January - thought win the Nets, Kings, Pelicans and than the Pacers at home (which would go exactly 31 days after the Heat loss) is still very much doable, even if not such a cakewalk.

I wonder when the last time Utah went 14-1 was. Because that's as impressive as eleven straight imo.

True.
Ty Corbin in 2011.
Jerry in 2008, 2007, and 2000.

Jazz was close in 1977 going 5-1 in October, their only blemish was a 3 point loss to the Cavaliers on opening night. The Cavaliers were led Campy Russell who scored 23 points, and Walt Frazier who scored 19 along with 7 rebounds and 8 assists. Pete Maravich and Truck Robinson both played 48 minutes for the Jazz and scored 29 and 28 points each. Gail Goodrich was the only other Jazzman with double-digits scoring 13 points off the bench.

In 1974 the Jazz was the opposite of undefeated, (does that make them unfeated?) They went winless in October in 7 games.

They keep shooting lights out from 3 point land and they will go undefeated!
