Random thoughts on the game:
Chase Buddinger looked like he was still bent out of shape re:the dunk contest. Evans looked extra dunk happy, and played solid.
It was good to see that we didn't miss Millsap. Not him personally, but we are fine without one of our bigs.
As mentioned, Harris played his game (penetration & breaks), maybe he should get the flu more often.
Burks plays with insane confidence and played well on both ends. He got some unexpected boards and is looking more and more like a steal.
Favor's played great D. Al was lacking, and sometimes it's amazing how he misses rebounds sometimes due to no effort, or like he doesn't realize he could box out???
Al was passing quickly. I kept dreading we would go into Al iso mode and throw away the game, but he committed early to shoot quick or kick it out. His 5 assists are good evidence for this. Also the offense was moving a lot, there were times that it stagnated, but they were few.
Josh Howard is a crafty veteran on defense and a pretty smart overall player. He had some great hustle play. He is back to his pre-injury form these past few games.
It was nice to see CJ playing with confidence. He had a good shot selection tonight. He was an important part of that second unit that struggles to score.

Besides, it was "Leap Day." Class act by Corbin to give Evans a lot of PT on the day he ws honored. The crowd wanted to see Jeremy play and he didn't disappoint.

Well Evans first half performance was pretty horrid but his second half was nice for sure.
Also I was wondering if Kanter was not feeling well he just didn't look himself last night, also with him and Evans both in the offense is rough as both of them weren't aggressive and the D just sagged off giving them open J's that they wouldn't take and stagnated the offense.

I don't know if Kanter was fatigued or what, but he plain just didn't show up. Kanter didn't have a single rebound. Has that ever happened before this year?
He has had a couple of other games where he just looked completely lost the whole time and struggled to find a rebound.

I should not watch games more often if this is what happens.

While I love it when the Jazz win, it's frustrating to see such a difference between home and away performances.

The thing is, it's not like the Jazz played badly in their last two road games (at Minnesota and at Sacramento), they just couldn't finish them at the end. We lost at Minnesota at the buzzer and we were right in the game against the Kings until the last couple of minutes. We have been playing better on the road of late, we just can't break through and actually come out with the W. If we could just do that and come back from the upcoming 5-game road trip with a winning record (3-2 to the stupid person) - which would be a big accomplishment considering we play at Dallas (21-15), at Philly (21-15), and at Chicago (29-8) - I would see those results as compelling proof that we have turned a corner on the road.

The thing is we've lost close games to BAD teams on the road, collapsing in the 4th quarter. Based on that, I don't see the Jazz being anywhere near competitive against GOOD teams on the road. I'd expect the Jazz to win against Charlotte. The Cleveland game is a toss up (Cavs = Kings). The other three games should all be losses > 10 pts.
That's understandable, since you can't seem to do it yourself.
