    We are not alone out there tonight. LA Clipper has the same situation, but they can say that it's a road game.

    The clippers went cold towards the end of the 3rd, but it wasn't like they had a big lead against Utah at the time...

    Comparing Rafer on one of his bad nights to some of the best PGs in the league sure won't him look good...

    Problem is that most of his nights are bad nights!

    LOL!

    Rafer is one of the worst starting PG in the league. He should come off the bench but the scrub gets to play with Yao/Tmac as a starter!

    Rafer is NOT starting Pg material, either is Mike James. Rafer is a back up pg as he did well in Miami, and Mike James is a undersized sg who should be a 6th man to spark the score.

    Can Deron Williams win most improved player? I mean, he started last year and played well and I never saw this these type of numbers in him, really. His apg have doubled, thus far.

    Granted, it helps when you have more players to dish to, but still. Of the major surprises about Utah, I think Deron's play may be the biggest. Granted, boozer is doing really really well, and healthy, but I didn't Deron had this kind of talent. He's putting up Chris Paul-esque numbers and everyone was riding CP3's nuts all offseason.

    Meh, CP3 is still more impressive to me. Shorter, younger, fearless.

    wow - i mean these jazz look great. they don't have any great 3 point shooters but they are killing people.

    give these j*zz credit. they got their stuff together and they are looking impressive.

    AND they are winning w/o kirilenko. paul milsap was a second round steal. deron williams (as mentioned before) should be up for most improved. he is playing like an allstar.

    amazing what happens when sloan plays the young bucks.

    He's been there since the late 80s and the owner has recently said that he can stay as long as he'd like...

    If the Jazz win tonight it will be Sloan's 900th win. Record for most with one team.

    It'll be his 900th win with the Jazz, but he coached a couple of seasons with the Bulls, so that'll put his career total at 994, only 6 from 1,000.
