Last time, Mark Eaton started at center. Bobby Hansen was in the backcourt with John Stockton. Mike Brown, not to be confused with former franchise players John Brown, Raymond Brown or Tony Brown, was the small forward next to Karl Malone.

Last time the Los Angeles Clippers won in Utah, the Jazz played in the Salt Palace, for goodness sake. Elton Brand was 10 years old, and the Clippers were virtually every bit as bad as now.
     
In that regard, Utah's 96-89 loss to the 16-25 Clippers on Wednesday night was a letdown.
     
Yet it was hardly the only disappointment for the Jazz, who fell to 25-16 as winning streaks of four games overall and seven at home came to a close.
