    Game 49, POR v. UTH (17-30, 8-16 away), 2/3/15
    UTH: 4th in Northwest Division, 14 1/2 games back

    Our Last Game: L @ MIL, 95-88, 1/31/15
    Their Last Game: W v. GSW, 110-100, 1/30/15
    Injuries: POR - Freeland (out), Crabbe (day-to-day)
    UTH- Burks (out), Hood (out)

    Matchups:
    Lillard v. Exum (8.9ppg, 3.8apg, 2.5rpg)
    Matthews v. Ingles (7.3ppg, 4.5apg, 3.9rpg)
    Batum v. Hayward (19.7ppg, 5.1rpg, 4.3apg)
    Aldridge v. Favors (18.5ppg, 9.9rpg)
    Lopez v. Kanter (18.6ppg, 10.1rpg)

    Power Rankings
    ESPN (19)
    Not a bad little January for Derrick Favors, who had six double-doubles and hiked his PER to a robust 22.37. The Jazz, meanwhile, are quietly up to a passable 11-11 since their rough 6-19 start after capping the month with that memorable Friday night undressing of the mighty Warriors.
    NBA.com (20) Pace: 92.9 (28) OffRtg: 102.9 (15) DefRtg: 106.1 (27) NetRtg: -3.2 (23)
    The Jazz are making their way through a tough stretch of schedule and are obviously still a few steps from putting it all together, especially in the backcourt. But Friday's win over the Warriors was a taste of their potential. Gordon Hayward (26 points, 15 rebounds, six assists) played like a star and their four-man frontline was strong from top to bottom.
    CBS Sports: (20) Utah is getting better every month. It won't show in the record but it does show in how it plays and in its quality wins, like its shocker over Golden State this week.

    I haven't seen another basketball forum which has better game thread templates, and this is part of what makes s2 so great.

    Big ups for doing this game after game, month after month, year after year. Keep up the good work! Thank you!!

    I'm more excited to see the fans go crazy about rolo being back than I am to watch us play the jazz.

    Phil Jackson used to say a mark of an elite team is winning 40 before losing 20.

    We did it last season, but this year might be a bit difficult.

    Let's put awful, awful January behind us and kick off the new month with a 20+ point win.

    I think itll be an awkward first few games while everyone gets used to playing with a defensive center again.

    I think Rolo returning even if he plays 15 minutes is a huge morale booster for the other guys. He's vocal on the court so fewer mistakes on defense. The Kaman Golbert matchup is the one I want to see.
