Command Analysis
Spurs managed to improve their performance and it helped them to get ahead of Sacramento and Portland in the standings. Team's progress led the Spurs into the Top-10 of the Western Conference, now team needs to retain the momentum.
Gregg Popovich managed to find the right words for his players,, but it is uncertain, for how long will it last. San Antonio put up a string of three consecutive victories, which started with a win over the Clippers (116:92), then they rolled past the Lakers (138:110) and Detroit also failed to put up a fight (144:109).
Such a performance from the Spurs is a great surprise, because team usually plays defensively. Now they need to catch up to the declining Minnesota, but DeJounte Murray and his partners are approaching a tough challenge in the match against Utah, but it seems like hosts are ready for it.
Jazz are currently at the 3rd spot in the Eastern Conference, but team is far more ambitious than that. Quincy Snyder's men managed to break away from the chasers, but they are also pretty far from Golden State and Phoenix.
Utah recorded three consecutive victories, beating Charlotte (112:102), Minnesota (128:116) and Dallas (120:116). As we see, team's players know how to play offensively, and fans are pretty excited about the team's performance.
