There’s no doubt in my mind that Deron Williams is the best player on the Utah Jazz. Despite this, Deron is somewhat disappointing statistically. Don’t get me wrong, I like Deron, but he has some pretty glaring statistical flaws that prevent him from being a top 5 player in the NBA. Besides, writing this post [...]

Let’s just pretend that as you read that headline you were laughing with me.
I know, I know, you expected to click on this title and see an empty page, but not so fast, dear Jazz fan, not so fast.
While such a How to Guide would be thin like a Kirilenko upper arm, it does exist, [...]

Ever since draft day in 2005, comparisons have been drawn between Hornets point guard Chris Paul and Utah’s Deron Williams. While a lot of good arguments can be made in the debate over who is the better point guard, the bottom line is usually obscured by a bunch of statistical analysis and speculative questions such [...]

Brevin Knight is actually a pretty decent point guard. What makes him interesting is his defensive production, he’s fantastic at both man-to-man defense and he gets a fair amount of steals on big men in the lane. Let’s do do the usual point-by-point breakdown:
Scoring: Can’t really shoot. He has put down jumpers at a 35% [...]

So the pre-season hate-fest has begun. And while the Spazz-nation is freaking out about it, I’m feeling right at home. Why? Because, it happens EVERY year. It is what it is. If the Jazz win 60 games the previous year and go deep in the playoffs, they might be predicted to [...]

‘Paul at the Peak?’ (Associated Press)
The NBA is a vastly different beast than the NFL; in the NFL parity is King and rules year in year out - though the best do win it all year in, year out.
In the NBA the only parody is at the 7th seed and 8th seed; and even then [...]
