I know this technically doesn't belong here......

but on the Knicks-watch, the Hornets aren’t doing us any favours at halftime….

anyone else finding themselves almost focusing more on the Knicks than the Jazz sometimes?!?!

Fes

I wouldn’t count on too much of him.

j-slow has previously stated that Fes will mostly see time when the Jazz are playing against “true centers”… which the Rockets don’t really use all that often.

We’ll have to see if he sticks to his word or not…

The problem is that they treat NBATV like a national network with the same blackout restrictions as TNT and ESPN, but not a lot of people have NBATV so they end up leaving a lot of people out in the cold.

Sorry, that’s all I have to say.
(Okay it’s not… seriously though, people will find online feeds. And if not that, it’s not like taking away the feeds will make more people go to the games. I’m not picking one or the other… it’s watch online or more-or-less ignore.)

Think they "can"

Yes

Think they will? Hmmm, it really depends on if the 7/8 seeds are down this year from last. I think we’ll finish somewhere in the range of 41-41, with an absolute max of 4 games above .500. So it would need to be easier to get in for that to happen.

The one real caveat is that this is a solid fundamentals team. If Tracy can come back at all from injury my predicition could be low.

Here is my new trade proposal.

The jazz trade Boozer to Memphis for Gay and Jaric. The Grizzlies would do this in a heartbeat.

Then the Jazz buy Jaric’s contract out, but force he and his wife to attend games in their swimsuits. Everybody wins.

The thing is

the refs can’t always see everything we see on replay.

So if a guy looks like he’s been hit (aka they act/flop), they’ll call a foul.
The problem is when the guy has been hit, and they act like nothing happened.

I don't care if they win. I can't be a supporter of this.

They play with zero heart and cohesiveness.

I can’t support Boozer at all.

It's re: Sloan extension (again), but Miller said this...
"I’d rather be criticized for being consistent and building on a foundation that’s worked for us over the years," Miller said, "and try to improve on that than I would by being hair-triggered and just a flavor-of-the-month club."

My question is… WHAT does he mean by “worked”? Isn’t the point to win Championships, not just make the playoffs?

you guys were wrecking the nuggets (until 4th quarter) but still you guys were beating them. i thought you guys could be a 4 or 5 seed. and the jazz losing at home is a rare sight.

So, the question now...

do you want the Jazz to sell low on Boozer?
Or keep him until he builds his value up (or let him go via FA if he doesn’t)?

there was just an article today about the Jazz considering resigning him.

I would just like to let you know

that, playing taller than he is or not, 6’6 C Chuck Hayes has more rebounds than anyone on the Jazz save Booze.

Speaking of Booze, any chance we trade him to a less anti-booze state for the price of a 6-pack?

You know how it was for the Rockets

you had T-Mac & Yao, but no “3rd guy” and it wasn’t enough to win it all (against Lakers/Celtics/etc.) and you knew that (at least subconsciously)?

Yeah… same thing here.

Maybe I'll be able to to see something good from this tomorrow ...

but right now I say the season’s over unless they trade Boozer (and maybe some other big-time change). That was awful. Their chemistry has been poisoned to the point of no return. The fans hate Boozer so much that ESA isn’t much of a home court advantage anymore.

KOC these are desperate times!!!!

the team needs to add a wing that can be counted on.
