The Fat Lady

fortydammer, you're 100% right. We have a collection of good players, but that's the extent of it. The Rockets showed the NBA a simp0le blueprint for beating the Jazz. Double Al with your PG time and time again. Why should anyone really respect Tinsley and Watson's scoring abilities?!

I'd like to see the Hornets try the exact same strategy tonight and see if the Jazz figured out a better way to run their offense.

I'd be stunned if the Jazz don't make moves by the trade deadline.

Corbin is lucky he didn't lose that one too! I know Al can score, and the announcers remind us every time he shoots the ball. Last night with five minutes left in the fourth, Jefferson returned to the lineup (replacing Favors), the Jazz had a seven point lead. I told everyone in the room to watch them go right at Jefferson with the pick and roll and go to the rim. I know AJ hit some big shots, but he, and almost he alone, broke down the Jazz defense and let them back into the game.          

Kanter was a beast again tonight. If he can just finish better, he can be pretty much unguardable. He's so stonrg and gets wherever he wants so easily. Could see him easily average a double double the rest of the year if we trade Jefferson and give him more minutes.

Nice win last night.  I kept expecting the Jazz to fall apart and blow the game but they didn't. The Jazz showed what they are capable of with their young athletic crew. It's not like the Thunder just had a bad game last night!  The last 6-8 min they came apart but they had shot lights out upto that point.  Drives me crazy we don't see that from the Jazz more often.

I've said it before and I'll say it again...The Jazz need to sign Carroll to a long term contract!

Jefferson is giving more defensive effort than I have seen from him at any point in his career.  I wonder if this is a new Jefferson or just Big Al playing for a big new contract.

How good could the Jazz be with a real PG?   


        

Luke Ridnour would look good in a Jazz uniform! I think he could be had for the weakest of Utah's draft picks. Tough on D, and will come off the bench, on the rare occasion Mo isn't hurt. A buddy of mine in Buda Texas says they are still talking AJ to the Spurs for Patty Mills and Splitter. What happened to everyone on the Jazz board?
