The Utah Jazz are having a terrific 2020/21 NBA season, posting big numbers, becoming the best team in the league right now. Every week, more people realize they are very good this year and some have claimed they have a big chance to fight with the Los Angeles Lakers for the supremacy of the Western Conference.
Last week, Giannis Antetokounmpo called this team the best in its conference and just like Giannis, a lot of people think the same. However, others aren’t fond of the Jazz and want to bring them down with anything. Recently, one NBA fan compared this Jazz team to one squad that didn’t have many expectations around them but ended up winning 60 games in an NBA season, the 2014-15 Atlanta Hawks.

That team exceeded the expectations and they looked like a real threat for LeBron James and his Cleveland Cavaliers but the King easily beat them in four games. This sparked a big debate and while some fans defended the Jazz, others claimed that LeBron would beat them just like he did with the Hawks back in the day.

This is just disrespectful.
Gobert >>> Horford
Mitchell >>> korver
Conley >>> Teague
Ingles > Carroll
Millsap was and is dope af but this Utah team would have dismantled that hawks team imho.

Not even close. This Hawks team has no talent close Mitchell or Gobert. Or even Conley.

Some ppl don't know basketball. That Hawks team didn't have a DPOY, 6th man candidate of the year and a bonafide star. And this is in the West. What they doing is most impressive. pic.twitter.com/xLJtDPxQPx

I miss this team but the jazz are better than that team simply because they have a borderline superstar(at least in my eyes) that can go get buckets and they actually have size unlike we did which is why bron swept us cause that brother was on a mission

History always repeats itself

He might be saying that they will be good all year only to get swept by lebron
— HOFAndruwJones (@bulldogs_stan1) February 14, 2021
This team was legit up until the cavs swept them 😂

The Jazz are having a great campaign and that will always bring a lot of bad comments and hate. They have a better team than those Hawks and they’re playing beautiful basketball. If they continue playing this way, the rest of the West will need to bring their A-Game because Donovan Mitchell, Rudy Gobert and co. will be ready to take them out.
