Weekly Run: No Jazz trades, but plenty around the league, Jazz lose 5 straight

The Jazz have lost five straight, putting pessimism and gloomy attitudes in the souls of Salt Lake Tribune Jazz beat writers Andy Larsen and Eric Walden. We begin by discussing that the Jazz didn’t make any trades, and explain why. (Spoiler alert: they couldn’t, really.) We talk about some of the other trades around the league that might have impacted the Jazz, and see if they could have slithered their way into those discussions. (Spoiler alert: Again, not really.) Finally, we talk about the causes of the 5-game losing streak, and whether a bad stretch now portends doom later.
