The game against Dallas was the best game of the season. No question about it. You’re probably already wondering why I would say that.
Was it the best because Williams hit that miracle three to tie it? Nope, that was negated by the poor transition defense and Dirk’s dagger with .9 seconds left. […]

Lately it seems that everybody is complaining about how the NBA Playoff system works. Allow me to add my 2 cents to the debate by offering up how I would fix them.
With the Western conference dominating the league with nine teams that should end up winning 50 games, it’s easy to see why people are […]

I’ve figured it out. I know who is winning the West. I know who is staying home this post-season and I know what seed every team is going to be entering the playoffs. I learned all of this today when I had nothing better to do than play around with Excel and […]

Look at the players above. None of these guys are superstars. Yet, over the last couple of weeks they were hot commodities for teams in the NBA. They were all released by their bottom-feeder teams and re-signed by contenders. I think this is a awful loophole David Stern has allowed […]

My sofa has a new imprint from me sitting on it all weekend watching the All Star events in New Orleans. The wife was out of town, so I was allowed to leave my couch only for necessities without being distracted by chores or […]

It’s long overdue, but Ronnie Price needs to be getting ALL of the backup minutes at point guard for the Jazz. Watching the Sacramento game the other night with a buddy of mine, we decided that the team needs an infusion of RPMs - Ronnie Price […]

I’m addicted to polls. This week is Super Tuesday and 20 states, including Utah will be voting in their primaries. I’m extremely interested in the race to the White House and watch daily to see who is in the lead on both the democrat and republican sides of the aisle. But […]

 
‘Making the Grade?’ (Glenn James - NBAE/Getty Images)

The season is officially half over and it hasn’t been pretty. At 23-18, nobody will be giving the Jazz an “A” on their report for their performance to date. I’d give them a solid “C-”. They have been completely average this year. Not living […]

I love the NBA All Star Game. OK, scratch that, I love VOTING for the NBA All Stars. The game itself is usually quite uninteresting. A couple of weeks ago I wrote about the all star ballot and some things I wished the NBA would change with the selection process. Today, […]

 
‘The Pain’ (Andrew D. Bernstein - NBAE/Getty Images) 
December was a brutal month.  I’m not talking about the snowfall here in Utah.  Or the housing market.  I’m talking about how difficult it was to watch the Jazz play 15 games (with 1 remaining tonight) and only win 4 of them.  Everyone knows it hasn’t been pretty.  […]
