Thursday’s Utah Jazz victory over the Pelicans was just the latest instance of this team not faltering under the weight of a deficit. Afterward, they explained why they’re so good at making comebacks.
in the second half changed the tenor of the game and injected some life into a listless crowd. Walker Kessler became a rim-protecting force that kept Zion Williamson from taking over. Mike Conley steadied the ship in the final minutes with his adept table-setting. And Lauri Markkanen and Clarkson repeatedly got buckets in key moments.
Hardy has made the point throughout the season that because these Jazz don’t have a guy who will average close to 30 ppg, or grab 15 rebounds per night, there needs to constantly be a collective effort. Clarkson noted that communication was flowing on the bench during timeouts — various people giving input on actions they’d seen, bringing over iPads to demonstrate either how best to attack or defend them. And Markkanen said that nobody got rattled by the slow stretches or the deficit, that there was simply a universal mentality of getting on to the next possession.
“We’ve been in those situations a lot where we’ve been down and came back — we just never give up,” said Beasley.
