It was just 15 months ago the Utah Jazz traded Donovan Mitchell shortly after trading Rudy Gobert. Year 1 of the rebuild was a painless year for the Utah Jazz. In year 2 the question is what is the Utah Jazz fanbase pain tolerance? Is the Oklahoma City model acceptable, what about the Houston Rockets or gosh forbid the Detroit Pistons. What is the Utah Jazz fan willing to endure?

The in-season tournament is a raging success the competition was up, the player engagement was up and the fan interest was up.

The Memphis Grizzlies are exactly where the Utah Jazz were a week ago, having lost 4 in a row and the last three all by 20 points or more. With three days of practice the Jazz are walking into a hornets nest at Fed Ex Forum without Lauri Markkannen.
