sounds like the guy's are ready to get things rolling this season. yes this should be a good yearbecause some of the team will be looking for greener pasteurs and that will help on the road to the finals. this year you gotta "hoe to the end of the row"!

This has been a great summer for Deron Williams. It's nice to see an athlete in the news so often for the good that he does.

Congratulations and thank you!

I love this guy. His style of play, his competitiveness, his drive to win, his leadership, his willingness to be the face of the Utah Jazz here in Utah.....the list goes on and on. I can watch the Jazz play because of him.

Thanks D-Will....and good luck this upcoming season. Utah Jazz 2008-09 NBA Champions....has a nice ring to it!!

Kudos to D-Will. What a guy! He's intelligent, well-spoken, driven and puts out 100%. What more could we ask? Well, he also has loads of talent, good size for a point guard and everything else we knew about when he was drafted. He has proved to be so much more than we expected, starting with his attitude and his improved shooting. He's actually one of the best shooters in the NBA right now.

D-Will is not only the star of the Jazz but an outstanding citizen. What a great asset to Utah. I find myself cheering for him on and off the court.

Not to sound exactly like everyone else on this message board, but I totally agree. I can't wait to see him dunking on opponents again!

This year is our year! A championship is in sight!

Boozer wasn't at the "informal pick-up game" and he certainly doesn't want to support a charity event! What a nobody. Deron is the appitamy of role model.

You mean "epitome".

So What? | 7:15 p.m. Sept. 23, 2008

I hope the season for the Jazz will be successful I wish there was not so many critics about Carlos Boozer I think he understand like every basketball player that he realizes what he need to improve on if Deron is satisfied with his performance then everybody should button up there lips he has had alot to deal with last year with his son now that he making progress maybe Carlos can get back to playing Baskeball like we know he can

Deron has taken ownership of the boat with a no-nonsense and higly professional approach in every aspect of his relationship with the Jazz organization and with Utah itself. This is the approach his team need to climb to the next level. Good to see indeed.

I love it.
