The Jazz were midway through their collapse. They had been knocked out, but were still about to take a few punches before the fight was stopped. Dallas had come from 16 points behind in the fourth quarter to tie the game when the ball was knocked out of bounds, a timeout was called, and the [...]

I know it’s a cheesy title. I didn’t want to start this blog that way, but after watching the game, I really didn’t feel I had a choice. In a game where not a lot went right – I saw one area that went horribly wrong.  While the Jazz didn’t play well in any area, [...]

Admittedly, Deron Williams isn’t quite sure where the idea for a charity dodgeball tournament came from. He and Kyle Korver just wanted to do something that was different, fun, and would involve lots of people. Kind of like an event Korver did last year where he raised $10,000 for charity by organizing and participating in [...]

Entering the NBA free agency period the Utah Jazz let it be known that their top priority was to sign their own restricted free agent Paul Millsap. Mission accomplished. Of course it took a little while longer than most people expected, it involved the Jazz matching an offer sheet from an unexpected suitor, maybe a [...]

I know what you are thinking. The only thing you gain by taking Boozer over Millsap is a fractured locker room and an inflated bill from the rehab center. Maybe a T-Mobile or Verizon sponsorship if the national television broadcasts can catch an injured Boozer texting away on the bench. Now that the rumors are [...]

With 3 players having the ability to opt out and 4 more players being free agents, there was a lot of early summer talk about just how much different the Jazz roster could look next season. So much for the early speculation. So far 10 of the 11 players under contract for next season are [...]
