Jersey just what Jazz needed

Sinan From Turkey | 12:30 a.m. Nov. 20, 2007

I'm right. If the team believes in him he plays better and better. Last night, his score could me more than 14 if he'd taken more time. One more thing, Jazz is perfect with those players by correct game plan and strategy. Because, players are very good at their places and they have differant abilities. Lets put them together to be the camp. Regards

Ooooooh! I can wait to see DWill up against CP3. It should be a good one but I'm expecting the Jazz to win!

Jimmy is happy that we got to play the Nets without VC. The Nets aren't the same team without him.

@ Sinan

Jimmy wants to know if you can explain why your fellow countrymans production is down this year?

Defense!! | 8:35 a.m. Nov. 20, 2007

The only thing worse than watching Boozer and Okur play defense is watching Boozer and Okur play defense when the Jazz are up by 20.

@ Jimmy's

It's not easy to explain it correctly from very far from him. But, my opinion: He's not forcing the stats and giving chance the one or two who's better at the game time. He lets the others to play for the team's benefit and does not force the game for himself in a selfish way. To me, he is good at playing this game and must be more attack in the game even maybe unsuccesful sometimes. I say this but i really don't know what they say him what to do on the court. What i watch on TV in the early morning (4 am=local time) the Jazz is very good if they use their abilities correctly. Good for the eye if they do it. This is the reason "i love this game" and i gets up at 4 am to watch them. Regards

You guys who are always criticizing Sloan, saying he never says anything nice about his team, where are you today?

re: lamonte | 10:02 a.m. Nov. 20, 2007

someone hasn't been paying attention. Chris Paul is injured he likely won't play. We better come to play on Friday or we won't win. The Hornets are very much improved

That was defense, I thought I was watching a bull fight.

HAIR | 10:28 a.m. Nov. 20, 2007

You would think with all of the millions of dollars LHM is dishing out to these players all of them could get a decent haircut. Okur looks like he rolled out of bed, put on his jersey and walked onto the court. AK has his own hair issues to worry about. I think it might be time for the Jazz to hire a team Barber and Stylist.

i would love to see r-price get some more time i have never seen a quicker player in my life

@ Jimmy

Maybe the reason Memo isn't scoring as much is because Brewer is taking (and making) more shots. As a result, scoring has to dip for someone. Granted, his shooting has been down, but he's a streak shooter anyway, so he should be fine.

@ HAIR

On a lighter note, I would rather have the Jazz's hair styles than all those players with corn rows. Anyone else here see Brad Miller with corn rows? I'll take Memo's bed head any day. I'd welcome AK going back to the mohawk though.

I agree with the comment from hair. Okur, Kirilenko could use a haircut. I wish someone would tell Andrei his haircut just doesn't fly.

Hair? | 2:42 p.m. Nov. 20, 2007

I Like Memo's messy look. You would rather him have a missionary cut and comb it over like your dad? Not me... keep your own style MEMO!

Ak has fun with his hair and his style. Sure it isn't conservative and wouldn't work at most office buildings... but he is playing ball and if you haven't forgotten he is an entertainer. Let him have his hair crazy without everybody telling him to get a haircut.

Seriously... you are not his mom :)

I am his MOM | 3:57 p.m. Nov. 20, 2007

Memo, This is your Mother. Get a hair cut. You don't need to be a missionary, but carry a comb with you. Please. YOu are embarrassing the family.

Rich | 4:28 p.m. Nov. 20, 2007

Please, enough about hair. Do you want to read a Doug Robinson article on the Jazz hairstyles?

Haircut | 5:16 p.m. Nov. 20, 2007

Okay memo doesn't do his hair... it's a basketball game... who does their hair for a basketball game? Secondly AK is up to date in hair styles... I saw those type of haircuts all the time in Europe... we probably will follow suit in the next couple of years.
