"We are very unselfish," said Rocket forward Chandler Parsons, who had 19 points. "We are moving the ball great right now. … We have so many different weapons."
The Jazz don't have much time to rest or to work on defensive lapses, seeing as the Los Angeles Clippers are heading to ESA on Monday for the first of three home games for Utah.
"We fought hard and it didn't come our way this time," said Burks, who had a season-high 11 points in 14 minutes. "We just got to be ready Monday."
NOTES: Houston coach Kevin McHale continues to take a leave of absence to be with his family, which is mourning the recent death of his 23-year-old daughter, Sasha. … The Jazz's final point total was a season-high for regulation play. Utah's previous regulation high came in the season-opening 113-94 win over Dallas. The Jazz scored 140 when they outlasted Toronto, 140-133, in a triple-overtime thriller last month. … The Spurs had previously scored the most against Utah in a four-quarter game, winning 110-100 in San Antonio. ... Marvin Williams (concussion symptoms) and Derrick Favors (strained right arch) did not play for health reasons, while Jamaal Tinsley dressed but didn't play because of a coach's decision.

Wow Corbin is really struggling due to his misuse of player personel in his rotations. Defense obviously has a low priority in his coaching style. Why else would Jefferson, Milsap and Foye be getting all of Kanter, Favors and Burks's minutes?
I have to agree with John on the 'where is Sloan' thing. A lot of people would disagree, but Sloan was the king of defense. I've said this before & I'll say it again, Corbin is a nice bloke, but lacks the experience NEEDED to More..
coaching is the problem...plus too much depth...is bad...you cant rotate good players...and you end up...sending some of those talented young guns to other teams...because everyone is blinded by the stats Jefferson is putting up...yeah he is a 20-10 More..
