Lacking the gumption to pounce on a struggling team, the Utah Jazz coughed up another one at the Delta Center on Wednesday night.

With it, they lost not only a winnable game but also the last traces of all that momentum they had built up earlier this month.

Under normal circumstances, losing 97-90 to Orlando wouldn't have been so bad, considering the Magic were preseason favorites to contend for the Eastern Conference title.

But the Magic arrived at the Delta Center having lost 5-of-6, and they were missing their key players.
