Second Period
I do get the feeling over the last handful of games (Timberwolves excluded) that Jazz opponents are beginning to dial in more for the playoff push, or at least finishing strong before the All-Star game.
Fewer disastrous starts, quicker timeouts to stop runs, etc.

The Warriors are passing the Jazz to death.
Even without Steph or Draymond on the floor, the ball is popping all around on the perimeter, and it's leading to an open shot nearly every trip.
Really good basketball.
