"In his actions and with his words — or lack thereof — Jazz guard Raja Bell has shown he's clearly frustrated with Utah's six-game losing streak.
In the Jazz's last two games, Bell has had words with the Lakers' Andrew Bynum and the Spurs' DeJuan Blair, and been issued two technical fouls. After the loss to San Antonio, Bell, a consummate professional, quickly left Utah's locker room without speaking to reporters.
