Washington Wizards at Utah Jazz, Mar 15, 2010 7:00 PM MDT
See the light at the end of the tunnel? That's the end of the regular season that's coming quickly. 18 games is about 1/5 of the season but I guarantee that it's going to feel like 5.
What's done is done and while we would like to have some of the early season games back to play again, the Jazz can only control what's left. If they're to have any shot at getting the three seed, then they have to take care of games like tonight against the Wizards. There can't be any games like the Warriors debacle last season and they certainly can't give up any more at home.
The Wizards have lost 7 in a row and it may have been 10 without a stop and a win in New Jersey. Of course they've shaken everything up at the trade deadline, sending Caron Butler and Antawn Jamison out of town.
This is a game the Jazz should and need to win. They'll be without AK and Price tonight but Memo will give it a go according to Siler.

I'm glad that Mehmet is going to give it the old college try. We are going to need him tonight.

Igoudala played really hard, but when Willie Green is getting so many minutes, its gotta be hard to win.

For the record, I enjoyed Carlos Boozer's interview with David Locke today.
Boozer has grown a lot this season and has improved in a lot of areas. I still don’t think he is as good as he thinks he is and I don’t think the Jazz can afford him, but I give him major props for turning this season into a major positive in what could have been an ugly situation.
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
Booz...
has been nothing but professional this season. Regardless of if he is genuine about wanting to stay, or just saying what will get him the most money this summer, Jazz fans can’t have any serious complains with Booz this year.

But he said some really important things. You missed out.

The referee outside should not be making that call. There is no way he could see the feet of Singleton.

Who did you have besides Wall, Bledsoe and Fredette?
Or was it not from an NBA perspective?

Didn't have Bledsoe on it
NBADraft & DraftExpress both have him not coming out till next year.
I hope to get one up about prospects for next year at some point

I don't think Jimmer can make it in the league unless he fixes his dribbling and plays point.
And none of those guys will ever be a starter in the league other than Bouldin. Just my thoughts.
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
I agree
we’re not looking for a starter though.
Well, Wall.
The rest are probably all 2nd round picks that might give minutes off the bench. Bouldin would be nice. Randle & Collins wouldn’t be too bad

BC's right. Just cuz there are 7 of us doesn't mean we can't get 1000 comments.

And I always enjoy posts that enjoy with “BC’s right”. Just an FYI.

Duke got an incredibly favorable draw. If they can just get by Louisville, few teams will give them problems.

Duke seems to lose when everybody thinks they are going to win, so I am not too worried.

Duke just better hope that someone takes out Utah State before they reach them :)

I like Utah State in the first two rounds, I think.

C'mon Moni. You haven't even been watching the best players to see who would look best with the Jazz?
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
somehow
i have no free time left after i’m done with the jazz, and i’ve always had a mental block when it comes to watching non-jazz teams.
in other words, i trust you guys to tell me who we should draft.
If we get a top 2 pick
John Wall (PG, Kentucky) or Evan Turner (SG, Ohio State)

I keep picking Kansas to get to the finals. I can't see who is going to stop them. They are the most complete team in the tournamnet.

And for the record, if the Jazz pick falls to the 10 or so area, I would like them to draft Xavier Henry.
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
Xavier Henry
I would love that pick.
I also read that he’s very coachable, which Sloan would love

Great shooter. Not a versatile scorer, but he has an NBA body and is very young.

I have to admit. Hassan Whiteside is super intriguing. He would be a project, but could be great.

I haven't seen much of him
and sadly he won’t be in the tourney.
And I fear big-man projects.
Haven’t we already failed with 2?

You would think there would be some Sloan motivation

How bout $ for every miss?

For someone that prohibits headbands and demands jerseys be tucked in, I don’t know why he would let free throws go. I wonder what the punishment is.

Houston commentator just said, "There's 41 seconds left, so no matter what happens, Houston is going to get the last shot."
I guess he was pretty surprised when Denver shot the ball with 35 seconds left.

Melo just got away with a big time walk and then a push off. Unbelievable.
