After a game-saving performance against the Phoenix Suns, the Utah Jazz's bench now has a nickname.
     
"Our bench could be called our 'Rescue Squad,' " said assistant coach Gordon Chiesa, "because they rescue us out of precarious situations."
     
Whether the nickname catches on or not, Chiesa's point is well-taken. One of the keys ? perhaps the biggest key ? to the Jazz's having won 8 of their past 10 games is that the team's bench has found itself.
     
The reserves have settled into their roles and produced on a consistent basis.
