Roach0's keys to the game, in this order:

Box out - Owning the Boards is a bigger trademark for the Jazz than snow is to Utah. If we don't box out, Jsmoov and Horford will wipe us off the glass, re; GSW :(
Keep spacing and rhythm on offense - We suck when we don't cut/screen. We don't do enough of it for my liking.
Clog the Lane on D - This has been the most difficult thing for me to watch... our inability to stop anyone from driving to the hole. Bring on the Fes!
Play our tempo - It's all about control. Don't let them decide how it's gonna go. They're just as good at their speed as we are at ours.
 
This could very easily be a let down game for the Jazz. My hope is that they have a new found confidence after the Florida sweep and steam roll the Hawks into submission.

Jazz and Hawks are going in opposite directions.

Hawks started out 6-0 all against crap teams.

Now they've lost 3 in a row and are without Marvin Williams.

Horford v. Millsap should be fun to watch - two guys playing unbelievable basketball right now.
 
Last season, ATL killed the Jazz there (Hawks switching defense stupefied the Jazz). In fact, the Hawks were the only team they didn't beat at least once. Hopefully, the Jazz want revenge and get up for this one.
 
I think Jefferson will spend some time on Horford and MANsap against Josh Smith. I wonder if the rookies get off the bench while Fes and Elison sit against small line-ups?

You raise an interesting point... I'd love to see me some Jeremy Evans vs Josh Smith.

Smith has been spending a lot of time at the 3 with Horford at the 4.

Jason Collins, who much to my surprise is still in the league, has replaced Marvin Willisams in the starting line-up and is getting significant minutes at the 5
