In Need of Some Answers

Usually I like to make my presence known on the Bot by giving indisputably phenomenal answers as to why the Jazz do (or don’t do) what they do.  But today, it couldn’t be any farther from that.  Instead, I have a whole slew of questions that I’m needing some answers to.
Like,
-Is Memo really back – [...]

A Tune-up For the V-12

Posted by Earl Stevens on March 04, 2010

I’m a bit discouraged about the Jazz’ recent losses to sub-500 teams.   In games against the Kings and Clippers, the Jazz started slowly and looked flat through the first three quarters.  The competitive juices started flowing in the fourth quarter and the Jazz made some great plays before falling short at the end.
I’m starting to [...]

The possibility of big-time development and growth of Kosta Koufos as a star big-man in the NBA was one of the things I was excited about coming into this season. So far though, he seems to have gone the other way. The minutes that he was getting last year are now being given almost exclusively [...]

I received a lot of great feedback about my first internship experiences post so I took some notes from the past few weeks of games and decided to have at it again…
*Hot Rod Hundley’s retirement night was a lot of work.  But a great experience.  The halftime ceremony was put together and run by a [...]

Babies and Basketball

Now that’s a great combination.   Babies and basketball.  I’m sure the Okurs are thinking the same thing too.  Congratulations to Memo, Yeliz, and Melisa on the new addition to their sweet, little family -  Yigit Mehmet Okur.  It was fun to see Memo get so excited when Boler and Booner asked him about the upcoming [...]

Jazz Begin Their Stretch Run

Can you feel it in the air?  It came with the close of All Star Weekend.  Perhaps you noticed the bitter cold starting to wane slightly, giving way to creeping warmth and incrementally longer days.  Spring—or at least the promise of it—has begun to stir, signaling the end of basketball’s long winter.  I love the [...]

Rumors are flying across the cyberworld.  The names of NBA superstars are being thrown around like candy at a parade.  All of these things can mean only one thing . The NBA Trade Deadline is now upon us.  And for the Utah Jazz the question [...]

Trade Deadline Approaches

We’re mere weeks away from the trade deadline, and the Jazz front office certainly has some things to think about. For me, this is one of the most fun times of the year where as a fan we can completely throw caution into the wind and dream up all of the wildest trade scenarios that [...]

Whose Stock is Going Up?

I’m not one who watches the stock market with bated breath.  I like to see what is going up, what is staying put, and what is going down.  But what do I like to do more than watch the market?  Watch the Jazz…need you ask.  So who do I see with that magic word, upside, [...]

Memo vs CBooz and the Insecure Fan

Posted by Brian McCann on January 21, 2010

Mehmet Okur tends to get a pass from most Jazz fans on the defensive end. For one, he is a likeable guy. He never says anything critical of his teammates, and he seems to know his role on the team. More importantly though, I think Jazz fans like him because he never says anything that [...]
