Owner Real Deal Posted January 30, 2013 Author Owner Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 It may be only one loss, but the Utah Jazz were humiliated on their home court in their last game. That doesn't tend to be a problem when hosting the New Orleans Hornets. Coming off the most-lopsided home defeat in franchise history, the Jazz look to re-establish their success in Salt Lake City by beating the last-place Hornets for the 10th time in 13 games there Wednesday night. Utah (24-21) has been much more effective at home, going 15-5 compared to 9-16 on the road. The Jazz extended their home winning streak to six by beating Indiana 114-110 in overtime on Sunday, but that run came to an alarming end with Monday's 125-80 defeat to Houston. Utah made 39.5 percent from the field - 5 of 18 from beyond the arc - and was outscored 26-2 in transition. "One loss. We were terrible," coach Ty Corbin said. "Whether you lose by one or 45, it's one loss. This team has shown a lot of grit and character all year long, and we'll respond. "We don't feel sorry for ourselves." The Jazz have split two meetings with the Hornets (15-30), but both have come in New Orleans. A visit from the team tied with Phoenix for the worst record in the Western Conference seems to be just what Utah needs to bounce back. The Jazz have won nine of the last 11 home meetings with the Hornets, averaging 103.3 points while connecting on 49.1 percent from the floor - 46.0 from long range.http://www.cbssports.com/nba/gametracker/preview/NBA_20130130_NO@UTA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
