Yeah. Seriously. You should really check your facts before you make stupid statements. The Jazz's D-League team is the Reno Bighorns. The former Utah Flash were purchased by the Boston Celtics and they are being moved to Maine.

I actually think that Shane Larkin will the pick at #14. He was the most athletic player at the combine and had the highest vertical leap of ANY player in the history of the combine (including LeBron James, but I don't know if there was an official combine in 2003 when he was drafted). What...

He seemed to know a lot about the Jazz. Other than Al Jefferson not likely coming back.

Actually, IMO, the team that would really pose a threat to the Heat would be the New York Knicks if they can get by Indiana. They beat Miami 3 of the 4 times they met during the regular season. 2 of NY's wins were in Miami, so would HCA really be that big of a factor in the series?

Exactly. I couldn't have said it better myself. Winning NBA basketball is defensive basketball. That is what the Spurs and Grizzlies do best. That is why they made it to the conference finals. Who cares if they aren't "exciting"? They earned where they are and they deserve it.

I would say that we could probably move up to somewhere within the 5-10 range. Now, is that high enough to draft Trey Burke? Don't know. It depends upon who would be drafting before we pick and what their particular "needs" are. We really won't know anything until the lottery on May 21st...

Again, as I always say, this is not profession boxing or wrestling. Who the crap cares what the NBA or the fans think? If the two best teams in the West playing for the Western Conference Championship is a "boring" series, maybe all the big market teams should just secede from the NBA and start...

I seriously doubt that this series will go to 7 games. I see the Warriors winning in 5 or 6 games. I have no confidence whatsoever in the Spurs ability to win in Oracle Arena with that crowd and the pretty decent team that they rabidly support. Golden State led virtually the entire time that...

I disagree. I think that Warriors are going to take the Spurs down. If not for an unbelievable 4th quarter run and a game winning shot from Ginobili, the Warriors would be up 2-0. The Spurs simply have no answer for Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. You beat SA with dominant backcourt play...

Now, tell me that I'm wrong. Both teams split their first two games on the road against higher seeds (OKC and San Antonio). They both now own home court advantage, and both of them have very intimidating home courts. I expect both Golden State and Memphis to win each series in 6 games (wins in...

The Lakers have trouble guarding fast/athletic guards, which Houston has (Jeremy Lin and James Harden). The Rockets will be playing to avoid the #8 seed and the Lakers will be playing for their playoff lives+the #7 seed (they and the Rockets would finish with identical 45-37 records w/an LA win...

Yep, the Rockets will definitely want to win this game. They do not want to drop to the 8th seed. They would much rather play the Spurs than the Thunder. And it's lose, not loose. Not to be a grammar Nazi or anything.

All we have to do is win in Minnesota (probable, as we have already won their this year) and Memphis (possible, as the Grizzlies could be resting their starters if they are locked into the #5 seed) and the Lakers need to lose to Houston (very possible, as the Rockets are trying to stay ahead of...

Nope. If the all states would just change the way that they disperse their electoral votes more states would matter. It is absolutely ridiculous that all of the electoral votes in a state go to the candidate that got the most votes overall in that state. It totally disenfranchises huge groups of...

I have been saying this for a while. It should be the top 16 teams in the league regardless of conference. The Miami Heat shouldn't get a cake wake to the NBA Finals just because the Eastern Conference is not as deep as the Western Conference. However, every playoff series would have to move...

Actually, I would say that there is a big difference between that Jazz matching up against San Antonio versus OKC. We simply cannot win in San Antonio (especially in the Playoffs), which means we would have ZERO chance at beating the Spurs. However, I think that the Jazz match up very well...

You are totally right. I misspoke. We have only played them twice (both in SLC). I thought that we had already played and lost to them in once Oakland. My mistake. Either way, we still need to beat them on Sunday. If we lose, we lose the season series and the tie-breaker potential.

the Jazz still could potentially finish higher than the 8 seed. It is highly unlikely that we will catch Houston, as they 1) own the tie-breaker over us (they won the season series 3-1), 2) they already have 41 wins (which means that they would have to go 4-4 in their final 8 games), and 3) they...

I disagree. Given solid minutes, I think that Jeremy Evans could turn into quite the player, actually. Beings that there is no real way that we are going to re-sign Paul Millsap AND Al Jefferson, it might just be a blessing in disguise. This would mean more minutes for the human pogo stick. If...

Not really. I have been watching the Jazz my entire life (26 years). Never can I remember us having a team with this much overall talent fail time and time again. Sorry that I brought it up. It's just ridiculously frustrating.
