Brutal Schedule alert. 10 of next 12 games are on the road.

Coach Sloan used to call the long road trip the catalyst for bringing a team together. I hope that is the case here! I do agree that if we come out of it 6 and 6 we had a successful stretch. I wonder if Butler will be available for the sixers game.

I would bet he is.

17 games in 31 days... 3 back to backs and no more than 1 days rest in between games. Tough stretch.

Utah might end up with one of those weird seasons where they are better on the road than at home. They seem to come ready to play for the tough games more often and slack off when they think it'll be an easy win.

Last year Utah had an advantage in the first round by playing the first two games on the road because of this. Road games don't scare so much as the officials ******** on any momentum we might have down the stretch. That's already cost us several games this year.

BTW, Utah already has 4 road wins this year, and that didn't happen last year until Jan. 10th. As much as our .500 record is kind of a disappointment, we're still way better off than last year. Can't wait until the team hits their stride.
