From what I have seen from Fes. He genuinely wants to improve. He may not know what to do in order to improve, but the desire is there. What he needs is a summer in Louisiana to show him what it means to work to get better. He will never work as hard as someone like Matthews or Malone, but...

the fes, jefferson think can work. Put Jefferson on the right block and fes does some acceptable work at the high post spot. Work the pick off the high post to spring Al down on the block, or Al pulls the double on the block and fes is there for the dive or O reb. You also have raja and...

Does anyone know a reliable place to watch tonight's game online. If you do, send me a PM with the address. I want to get a good look at the new guys.

you do realize that that was not a racist statement. In fact it was backed up by previous behavior by the player in question. Both assault and statutory rape are offenses that can merit incarceration.

Good to see a Jazz powerforward again. Even if he will probably be player center.

I like having a starting lineup of: Williams Miles AK Milsap Jefferson This gives us a very long and athletic 1-3 with an athletic if not big 4-5. Offensively you cant leave anyone to double down or they can really hurt you. It also gives some size on picks and rubs. You have good...

Endorsement money in Utah is hard to come by. So players agents know that you have to get in good with fans in utah and that means be squeaky clean. Have you noticed that all of the new guys to the jazz sound pretty much the same in interviews. Raja is a bit different, but he is also older...

At least he realizes that if he doesnt go to training camp, his NBA career will be all but over.

I have price over watson, and cj over bell because they had that spot at the end of last season. Basically it is their spot to loose. I also think Sloan may want a vet like bell on the second unit. Will depend on if CJ can play D in camp. Will see how things pan out in a week or so.

What this signing does is give the Jazz flexibility at the 1 and 2 spot. Gaines is likely not going to be picked up next year. Price and Watson will battle for the backup 1, so whoever is better will get those minutes. It also allows the jazz to use Price or Williams at the two if needed...

I know that in college the coaches can only be involved with the players for specific amount of time practice time each month and can not be involved in unofficial practices at all. I dont think the same thing is true of the NBA however. They just cant have official or mandatory practices.

At center, Eaton gets my nod because with the offensive firepower from the other spots, you dont need a scorer. That and he clogged the lane and was a really good man defender. He was also very good at rebounding and getting the ball out to stockton to get out in transition. Okur can shoot...

Wow shooting guard is hard for me to decide. Horny, Grif and Pistol. They had such different skill sets plus I really liked all of them. Probably have to go Pistol on this one. Now on PF the easy choice would be AD, but I remember him as being a black hole and not a great defender. Ak...

I dont have any. But I would love to get a Griffith jersey. Anyone know where you can get jerseys from the old days?

The Thunder are about to run into a potentially problematic phase in a young team. The "big contract year" The rookie contracts are almost up and people will be playing to make their stock higher in the market. This can destroy a team. We will have to see if the coaching staff and players...

I really dont think that the lakers wanted Shaq in the west. So utah would not have been a good pick. Plus AK was the only chip utah had at the time.

Plus I dont think you have to have a full roster until later in the season anyway. So why lock yourself into contracts when you could possibly get something better later.

It will depend on who plays better during camp. However, at this moment I see the starting line having CJ at the two and AK at the three. This is because they worked into those starting spots last year. Sloan doesnt just hand spots to players. THey have to earn them. Even Jefferson will have...

They know that not many fans of Utah are the betting type. So in order to get some action they are making the odds more appealing in order to get some more action. They still know that the odds are against utah , but not as bad as it looks. Plus they dont loose much if the 10 utah fans that...

What impressed me about the interview is the relationship Al has with Flynn. I think this is an indication of the type of lockerroom guy Al is. He wants to get along with other guys and wants to help them get better. That is a good fit in utah. Hope Im right on this one and so is williams.
