Coming down the stretch, the NBA's Western Conference is up for grabs. The Ringer's Rob Mahoney knows that all too well.

"He’s already pretty dogged trying to fight through screens for example," Mahoney said. "But you get a better sense of how to fight around a Jusuf Nurkic screen the more you play against a guy like that."
Roundball Roundup is presented by First Colony Mortgage, the official mortgage lender of the Utah Jazz.
