Jazz win ugly, now 3-3

- The Jazz are undefeated at home. This is where they should be.

- Coach Tyrone Corbin is learning on the fly, and I've been impressed with his decisions. He's earning more trust with each game. No, I don't think Raja Bell should be starting, but if he wants to leave him in there, okay. Raja can be the sacrificial lamb at the beginning of the first and third quarters, and then Alec Burks can come in and work his wild rookie magic.

- The shortened schedule means the Jazz have to think about minutes. Al Jefferson is the only one playing more than 30 minutes a game, but he was able to miss a game with his ankle.

- Josh Howard left the game early, and his absense showed in the second half.

- The Jazz won ugly, but their defensive stats are going to look that much better tomorrow.

- Jazz are #1 in blocks in the NBA,a nd they had 12 tonight, 5 from Derrick Favors.
