This is just a heads-up to all those out there who haven't been paying too much information to the rest of the league. Utah is now at 28-18, which, while still 3.5 games behind us, is a threat to be accounted for. They have won 5 straight, and have seemed to exhibit a good deal of confidence. They are also 9-1 in their past 10 games, which is the same mark as the Nuggets. The Jazz are now in 4th place, one game ahead of the Spurs. I'm just saying this because I would ABSOLUTELY HATE to see them in the second round or something playing like this. However, I'd love to see the Lakers have to play the Jazz. Also, according to Hollinger's SOS rating, the Jazz have played the 5th hardest schedule in the league so far. The three hardest have been the CRaptors, the Rockets, and the Lightning Thunder.
Here's a link to the ESPN standings.
Here are some pictures of the Jazz, without captions because I'm being lazy:

OK, I'm done.
