Utah Jazz will not let Los Angeles Lakers keep the beating in EnergySolutions Arena, Salt Lake City.

After two grueling games in Laker’s home court wherein the Lakers dominated Utah Jazz by double digits, winning Game 1 by 13, 125-112 before winning again in Game 2, 119-109.
The 2009 NBA Playoffs will now continue in EnergySolutions Arena [...]

Tracy McGrady: So emo.
I can’t believe the Jazz pulled it off. Two wins in a very hostile environment to open the series (and basically close it, since we’re headed back to Salt Lake City for Games 3 and 4). I was so worried coming into the series that the Jazz would choke, [...]

Welcome back, Andrei. We’ve missed you.
And so, UtahJazzBlog emerges from its exams-induced hibernation, just in time for the playoffs. And what a glorious start it was. The Jazz played great team basketball. There were issues, yes — too many turnovers in the first half, too many free throws given up, too many ill-advised shots — [...]

Thank goodness.
Games like this are surely not good for my health. With Denver, it always seems to get interesting, one way or another.
It never should have gotten this interesting, though. The way we played in the second quarter, we should have walked away with another easy victory. It’s funny — last season, [...]

I never thought I would see this man looking so smug. 41 points and 9 rebounds later… yup, pretty smug.
For various reasons, including me just being really, really busy with other stuff in my life (you know, stuff I actually get paid for), I haven’t posted in a long while. But I [...]

After the first half of the Jazz’s preseason and training camp, it looks like Ronnie Brewer has earned himself the starting shooting guard spot. While Jerry Sloan would be quick to deny this, and there’s still the possibility of trade (really now, Kobe?) or injury, Ronnie Brewer should start the season [...]

I hate all of this talk. I hate to think that AK will be wearing another uniform going into next season. I really hate that it has come to this. I have a couple of thoughts…
Number one:
If I am Larry Miller and I have to make a choice between Jerry [...]

McSean hit this story late last night in his post. I heard about it too but wanted to wait until the media picked up the story to verify its legitimacy. Well, it seems pretty legitimate now. Ross Siler of the Salt Lake Tribune is reporting that this blog post (translated into English [...]

Should we give in to his demand, or try to work things out again? His value improved after EuroBasket, but if the Jazz are being “forced” to trade him, that hurts his value.
An article in the Salt Lake Tribune had this to say:
“I’ve thought about it a lot and I came to a [...]

Seeing as Andrei Kirilenko could be the one piece that makes or breaks our status as contender, here’s his statistics from his first game in the FIBA EuroBasket 2007, playing for his home country Russia.
According to EuroBasket’s homepage, Kirilenko put up impressive numbers in his team’s victory over Serbia:
24 points, 12 rebounds, [...]
