    Do we still have fans from Turkey on here?

    I need a small favour from someone in Turkey. I am trying to sign up for an account at Devlet Arşivleri Başkanlığı because I need to order some documents from there. Even though as I can sign up for an account as a Canadian, you can only have the activation code sent to a Turkish cell number...

    Jazz player call the scholarship winners to let them know they've won

    Pretty sweet, I have to say. I feel like NBA teams and players do more for the community than any other pro sport. Also, I'm so old. When Jordan said "No cap," I had to look up what that meant. :p

    Jinglin' Joe

    We need a thread to fawn over him after he was once again dismissed by a section of our fan base as washed. I could wax poetic over his passing, shooting, his pick and roll, trash-talking. I'll just get this rolling with this. Joe Ingles was first eligible for the draft in 2007. He was...

    2020/21 Utah Jazz championship train

    For Christmas, I got the jersey from my wife and the t-shirt randomly from my sister-in-law. A clearer sign from the gods you couldn't find. We are winning it all this season. So, come one, come all and get on board the Jazz championship train and hold on for dear life. It will be a hell of...

    Mid-but-kinda-off-season Jazz history video thread

    Because we've all been thinking and talking about Jazz history so we need some nice, happy Jazz videos.

    Utah Jazz top plays of the 2010s

    Just thought I'd start this thread to recognize and honour the top plays by our boys in the years 2010-2019. It's been a long 10 years, with a lot of lean years(by Jazz standards), but that doesn't mean there was no stuff to cheer about. Here are my top 5, in chronological order. Sundiata...

    Mormons don't want you calling them Mormons anymore

    https://www.cnn.com/2018/08/17/us/mormon-church-name-trnd/index.html Now, I was thinking before I read this that I actually do avoid saying Mormon and generally try to say LDS, but apparently, that's not cool either. I generally avoid using the word Mormon around LDS members, but have been...

    Utah Jazz 2017/2018 MVP

    Tyler Lydon has played 2 minutes this entire season. He did not register an entry in any statistical category. Donovan Mitchell has more points since this Tuesday than Trey Lyles since the season started.

    Chat log being automatically added to the game thread

    It's garbage. Can we please get rid of it? Or have a democratic poll about it? I see the point of it, but it breaks the flow of a game thread. If I wanted to see what people were saying in chat, I'd go through the trouble of clicking on it.

    Family trip to Utah in November

    So after noticing my excitement about our team throughout the preseason and after having to hear all about Donovan Mitchell and his once-and-future-kingness, my wife has decided that it's high time I attended a Jazz game. Since anyone who's ever listened to a Springsteen song knows driving is...

    A comforting and perhaps slightly terrifying stat

    Through the first 3 games of our series against the Warriors, the Jazz were outscored by an average of 11 points a game. Through the first 3 games of their series against the Warriors, the Cavs have been outscored by an average of 15.3 points a game. Even with the stinker of a 4th game the...

    NBA takes 2017 All-Star game away from the city of Charlotte

    Prince passed away

    As a person, perhaps he wasn't reputed to be the greatest guy, but as a musician, his impact was absolutely enormous. I got a copy of Purple Rain when I was 15 and it absolutely blew me away. One of the greatest albums of all time. I slipped the DJ at my senior prom a tenner to play the title...

    The racial makeup of Jazz fans

    To get our minds off this disaster of a season, here's an interesting infographic from a couple of years ago. It was around that time the Clippers were sold and whatnot. A few things here. Despite popular misconception, we don't have the whitest fanbase! Not only are the Wolves...

    Please fire Snyder and get a real coach in the summer

    You know, the kind of coach whose resume doesn't say "sat on the bench and watched great coaches." Why the **** would you give a job to someone who's never coached professional players in his life?
