As far as the selection process for the USA Mens Basketball team is concerned, all that is left the official announcement and maybe a fight or two over jersey numbers. The press conference to formally announce the team is needlessly set for Monday morning. It’s kind of a formality […]

‘John & Coach Jeff’ (Kent Horner - NBAE/Getty Images)
There are plenty of reasons you may have loved him as a player. Excellent shooter, smart player, good teammate, down to earth. Maybe you liked him because he looked like the average guy (the average guy who happens to be 6’4”) or maybe it was the secret […]

‘AK’s Way’ (M. Majchrzak - NBAE/Getty Images)

Back to LA we go. The team practiced today and are headed to Los Angeles shortly. We are staying in a different hotel this time since the last one didn’t have any wins in it. (This really isn’t the reason, but it’s fun to […]

Can I hear an Amen, brother?
The Jazz continues to roll.
Memo, like Moses of old, is leading the Jazz to the Promised Land. With DWill and Booze having less than stellar games, there was Money to be counted. Memo had his squeegee and Windex out, keeping the glass sparkling clean. Memo led all scorers and rebounders, […]

                                              
You had to love Memo’s comment, just before these last 6 games started, all against .600+ teams. I can’t find the exact quote, but it went something like this. “So, Memo how hard are these last 6 games going to be for the Jazz?” Memo said something like, “They are going to be hard […]

Andrei Kirilenko has been cleared to play and will start for the Jazz Wednesday night against the Wolves.  Ronnie Brewer will miss his second straight game.  Ronnie Price will start for the Jazz in his place.
