Utah Jazz: Jazz put hammer to Celtics

jazz are looking good. milsap and williams are the future.

Milsap is the man.

Just glad that D-Will calls biggest part of the plays . The Coach would have messed it up .

we need to get Korver 3-5 3 ptr attempts per game. Let the man shoot. He is confident as ever.

does anyone agree with me that D-will often ignors AK on the court? He's shooting much better and is often wide open--still, D-will looks to someone else. AK is a great passer and I think needs more chances from D-Will. Let me know what you think.

Deron is the true all-star on this team right now. Teams need to remember not to piss him off.

Violet Palmer is the worst official in the league. It seems like every time I noticed a bad call, she was making it.

NBA players need to find shoes that have substance over style. Ray's shoes were nice to look at, but not to play in. His fancy gold shoes should have been left at the end of the rainbow.

Boozer needs to heed his own advice and drive, drive, drive. He just keeps falling away, away away.

Jimmy would like to see DWill keep up his agressiveness on the road, where this Jazz team usually settles for too many outside shots in these games. If the Jazz can come back having won 3 of 4, Jimmy would be happy.

What a game last night! Everyone that played did well. Sloan did a good job limiting the number of players who played, which is an indicator of who will be in the rotation as the playoffs near. D Will was just amazing, and the Jazz just seemed to pull it together on the defensive end of the floor to take KG, Pierce and the other Celtic bullies out of their games early on. I worry about KG and his mannerisms. He looks like a headcase. Paul Pierce was totally exasperated and couldn't believe what was happening. That female referee was a bit bizarre in some of the calls and nocalls she made. Perkins for the Celtics is another thug in the league, and needs to be thumped by someone for the baloney he was doing in the game. He should have been tossed for the atrocious foul he laid on Williams. Now after this game, the Jazz need to bottle what they did in Boston, and try and sweep the rest of games, which I know is a practical impossibility, but quit losing to the teams they should beat. Losing to Chicago was not a good thing.

Go Jazz!!!!

The Jazz exposed the Celtics big weakness last night, the Celts have no point guard. Just who is Rajon Rondo, anyway??? I think Boston is going to run out of gas, no way do they make it to the finals. Now the Jazz have to avoid a letdown vs. New Jersey. With all the losses on the road against bad teams, one would think the Jazz have learned their lesson by now and will take every team seriously.

Williams is a STUD! When Jerkins jerked him to the floor, he didn't get up for a while and it looked like he couldn't see very well. He got P.O.'d and you could see the fire in his swoolen eyes. They looked like two swoolen plumbs. He stepped up to the line and knocked down two. Since it was a flagrant we inbounded the ball and D'Will knocked down a three. Then he looked at Jerkins and yelled something that wasn't very nice at him. That, all in crunchtime in the Gaaaden. Will is showing me things that I didn't know he had. Things that very few players that have ever played this game have.

Since the Jazz were in their white unis, they played like it was a home game ...

Sloan haters?? Boozer bashers??? where are you????
The Jazz are starting there run and the younger players are understanding their roles better. How could anybody want to change a thing about this team??? Like it or not Sloan ball is effective in playoff situations
Go Jazz hope they dont stumble against the Nets

Golden state is 4 1/2 games out of first place in the west. Detroit is also 4 1/2 games out of first place, but they are in the east. The standings change in the west several times a day.

I am so proud of the Jazz players. They really gave a great effort against the Celtics. Having to play the next night in another city could be scarey though. I hope we don't have a let down. Push it hard tonight also. GO JAZZ.

MILSAP HAS MORE POTENTIAL THAT LOOZER DOES..

SAD THING IS THAT BOOZER ALREADY PEAKED LAST YEAR AND THATS ABOUT AS GOOD AS HE WILL EVER GET.

PAUL HAS A SWEETER JUMPER AND IS STILL A YOUNGSTER!

TRADE BOOZE

The milsap is sweet. In the 3rd when Boozer was 0 for 5, the Milsap comes in and goes to work down in the paint with the big boys at times coming out of the middle of 3 big green monsters with the ball. I agree with clarky boy and Adam Q. Milsap and Williams are the future,but we're in the now and we have a chance to make a run NOW!!!! The whole team is contributing and Capt. Sloan coached a H...ck of a ballgame hateful one. GO JAZZ!!!!!

P.S. How did you like the game Sinan? I hope you didn't fall to sleep in the 2nd half since it was about 3 am Turkey time.Go Memo!!!GO SINAN!!!!

Curious in Boston ... Great win for us!!!!!!

Millsap drove me crazy last night. He fumbles the ball about as much as Osterfat did!

Sloan needs to figure out a way to limit Derron's minutes. It looks as if he has no confidence in Price, based upon his minutes and Sloan's playcalling for him. I would like to see Andre in spot minutes and even Brewer. If jerry gave brewer the "green light" to handle the ball and go to the hole when the opportunity is there, I think it would be very beneficial becasue brewer can pass and draw fouls. I don't think Price is capable of more than 6 minutes in tough games, and it is obvious sloan feels the same way.

It's nice to see that teammates will talk to each other during a game in ways that turn out to be effective. Boozer's comment to Williams to be more aggressive because he could tell Boston was keying himself (Boozer) so much that he was being ineffective, was likely part of the catalyst in getting Deron to continue to drive to the basket the rest of the game.

Hopefully, that bruising experience won't deter him in the future.
