New Orleans Hornets at Utah Jazz, Jan 7, 2009 7:00 PM MST
This is arguably one of the biggest games of the year so far and not necessarily for the reason you might think.
Let's get this out of the way - Any time it's Williams v. Paul, it's big. Deron likes to say it's just another game, but at the same time he says that he likes going up against the best. So there's always that extra motivation for him. But the matchup isn't the main reason why this is a big game.
The Hornets just did the rest of the Western Conference a favor last night, knocking off LA in LA and closing the gap for everyone a bit. NOLA is 7-3 in their last 10 games and have won 5 of their last 6. So they're playing pretty well right now.
This game will be a good barometer whether the Jazz are serious contenders at this point in the season. We're facing a Western Conference power, at home, after they just knocked off the conference leader on their home court. So if the Jazz win tonight, it will show a few things,
- It would put a significant stamp on the season so far when the Jazz have been wishy-washy at best. We've alternated wins and losses for too long now. We have to start putting something together. A win would be two in a row and perhaps start a streak similar to last January.
- If we beat NOLA without Boozer, we'll be that much better off when he returns.
- Maybe the front office reconsiders making any moves. They're not going to be rushed or forced into anything anyway, but a win here would have to be encouraging for them knowing that the team as constituted is pretty good. If there was a significant upgrade, they'd make it. A loss though might prompt them a little to make a trade though.

Miles drives me crazy. If he could even just learn to either not foul, or foul so the other guy can't score, he would be much improved.

by moni on Jan 7, 2009 7:23 PM MST up reply actions 0 recs
Not solely.
But he’s a big reason. He doesn’t play with energy and he doesn’t run the first team offense. I mean his guy has 7 points so far and did you see that awful left hook shot? I also think we have sort of mentally embraced the slow start thing.

Miles problems boil down to two things and they are very fixable.
1. Be more active on defense and don’t let your defender get open layups and dunks
2. Cut to the basket without the ball and never stop moving on offense.

by clarkpojo on Jan 7, 2009 7:28 PM MST reply actions 0 recs
maybe he thinks that he already is active on defense
and is moving on offense.
isn’t that what it boils down to? he and jerry have different definitions of what constitutes “working hard”

Don’t you remember him sizing up Kirk Hinrich and just lowering the boom on him?

Someone tell Sloan that Millsap is a regular and he can pull him for Koufos now.

Not to hijack the thread here...
But the trip BC and I took to Staples Center was a blast. I’ve never been to a road Jazz game and it was pretty fun.

I think I broke my toe pregame, so I might be hanging on the couch after the game.
I’ll post something.
by rxmike12 on Jan 7, 2009 9:13 PM MST up reply actions 0 recs
The toe break, or the article?
Yeah, I was starting to get dinner ready and a big Mason jar of salsa fell on my toe. Then about 10 minutes later a really sharp knife bounced off the floor and stabbed me in the shin. Needless to say, I’m gonna stay seated the rest of the night. :)

I'd rather have him in
a Memphis Grizzlies uniform.

around the league...
Indy up on Phoenix late…
Denver in a close one with Miami…

This could be a nice night for us all around.

for real?
it’s a social network thing that consists solely of 150-character responses. Sort of like if Facebook was made of nothing but status updates.

I love how at the end of an NBA game the coaches just give the “hey what’s up” head nod and hand in the air
