Summary

Their 2009-10 NBA season done after a 4-0 sweep by the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference semifinals, the Jazz now turn their attention to the June 24 NBA draft.

  • Utah a viable option for Korver

  • Jazz work to solve a new puzzle

  • Forget Boozer, Jazz need Williams

  • Matthews, Fesenko at crossroads

  • Will D-Will play for Team USA?

LITTLE THINGS: Sloan told reporters that some of the nicest things he hears about the Jazz come on the road, from personnel on charter flights and bus drivers.

Many remark about how nice the team is and how it doesn't leave any messes to clean up.

"I know little things don't mean a lot to a lot of people," Sloan said. "But I think little things show up a great deal as to who you are and what you're about."

MISC.: The Jazz showed off their new uniforms for next season to players on Tuesday but wouldn't show them to media members. ... Jazz assistant coach Tyrone Corbin, a rumored candidate for New Orleans' vacant head-coaching position, said Tuesday that he hadn't yet heard from the Hornets and had no immediate plans to interview for the job. He didn't rule out interviewing if invited, though. ... Ex-Jazz shooting guard and Miami resident Raja Bell, an unrestricted free agent, is lobbying for a job next season with the Miami Heat. "Miami is my first choice," Bell told a Miami radio station, according to the Miami Herald.

i hope the jazz gets lucky in the lottery. having a top 5 pick would help the team greatly. a dominant big man is the jazz's most urgent need. i also hope the jazz gets another wingman in the molds of matthews. they should also acquire a veteran big More..
