"But for a harsh dose of reality, note that the team that showed the most post-break improvement last season was Charlotte. And the season before that, it was Sacramento."
I think the defense is too good to follow suit. But then again Charlotte's defense was also like number 6 last year. Also depends on how much you buy into this post all star improvement being primarily from addition by subtraction by Kanter. Jazz have also had the hardest schedule pre break in the entire NBA while also having the easiest post break schedule in the entire western conference with only 1 team in the eastern conference having an easier remaining schedule.
However Jazz are stable franchises while the Hornets and Kings aren't.
