During the first 14 games of the season, Utah's offense was often politely described as sputtering and disjointed. Over the last six games, Jazz players and opponents have started using words like rhythm and flow.
The biggest difference is often the smallest guy on the court: Trey Burke.
Burke has displayed a growing command of the offense and he takes care of the ball. In the last 133 minutes, he has only committed two turnovers. His ability to break down the defense is at a premium on this Utah team where few can create their own shots.
"He has started making the simple plays — like putting pressure on the defense and then dropping the pass to the bigs. It's not sexy but it's the right basketball play and it sets you up for things later on," Utah coach Ty Corbin said.
