Utah Jazz hope D-Will returns soon

Jimmy Z | 11:49 p.m. Nov. 14, 2009

Sloan needs to retire..and get out of here...Williams wants Sloan gone...its obvious with
his comments....the Rookies played well. Williams,holds the ball too long on the dribble, and gets burned off the drible by many NBA guards.
Booz played well the last two nights, but lets face
it the Jazz are boring to watch under Jerry Sloan.
Just boring..I am tired of getting to the first round....Greg Miller needs Jerry to resign..and lets
get some new blood......in there

todd to jimmy | 11:58 p.m. Nov. 14, 2009

let me level with you..... Greg Miller does not really care what the majority of the fans want. It is obvious or Jerry would not be here any longer or Locke would not replace Hot Rod.

Locke last night said "I am going to be the only person in this arena standing and applauding the boys from Utah".

You hear a clap in the background----geeeeeezzz

I heard Steve Brown tell it like it was, calling out players mistakes and always on top of things I noticed-I wish he was doing radio play by play''

For those that wondered where Craig was today>

He does SEC College Football for CBS

The Jazz now have 8 of 9 at home/.

The time off will do go good until Wednesday.

If we win 7 of 9 we would be (11-8). Then CJ AND KORVER get close to back if not already.

I would accept that I guess to be 11-8 with all this adversity and then maybe we can start to roll...

At least 2 wins on this trip hope mentally will let the players know they can get it done in the clutch,

that would be vital

ADVERTISERS BEWARE! | 3:25 a.m. Nov. 15, 2009

FIRE LOCKE!! I won't listen to him!!!

Comments continue below

good game | 6:06 a.m. Nov. 15, 2009

The team seems to have a need to convince themselves they can play against good teams. History has shown that they begin to roll and get better. Too bad that doesn't happen earlier each year.

Congrats to the rookies, to play well against Cavs is awesome and better yet is to get praise out of Sloan 2 nights in a row.

Can you imagine Mike Brown coaching without LeBron? that man is seriously a clown or a very well paid spectator with a great seat. when Sloan is there he does not miss a beat.

to Jimmy Z | 8:37 a.m. Nov. 15, 2009

How is it obvious that DWill wants Sloan gone? Is it cause he twitted that changed need to be made?

Are you really going to read into it that much? If you payed attention to the Jazz and what is written you would know that DWill continually praises Sloan.

Get a life.

i'm not sure if i can handle listening to David Locke either. maybe i just have to give it time but he really has so work to do to improve. I"m not saying i could do any better but i couldn't listen to more than 10 minutes of the Sixers game before i had to turn it off.

Jazz Fan | 10:58 a.m. Nov. 15, 2009

I think dwill should leave. Look how much better they play without him. he is a ball hog and Eric passes the ball.

Jaz4ever | 2:09 p.m. Nov. 15, 2009

Locke's awesome. Give him a break. It's not easy to follow up a legend whether it is Locke after Hot Rod or D-Will after Stockton or (yes I said it) Booz after Malone. We've been spoiled in Utah with passionate and talented players. Support your team . . . and remember they're still building. It's pretty amazing that they've been able to stay in Utah. Did anybody see how empty the Philadephia arena was? I mean really, it could be worse. D-Will has a killer game and we could have used him last night. We wish the best to his daughter. Locke's doing just fine. It's time the broadcast was brought into the 21st century. BTW, if we did get a new coach . . . you would be all over them cause they weren't Sloan. We could be the Bulls who are still rebuilding multiple coaches later. Really . . . Jazz fans are spoiled brats sometimes. Appriciate what you have, which is basketball at its best 70% of the time, each and every year.

TJ | 2:26 p.m. Nov. 15, 2009

Jazz Fan your an idiot. Yeah Dwill is a ball hog but that is because he is supposed to be. If willams was their when the jazz played ohio they would have won. Yes i think sloan should retire he is old and we need a new coach.

What was with A.K taking the three so early?

Locke is nauseating | 2:50 p.m. Nov. 15, 2009

Sorry Jaz4ever you need to get a grip....Locke is not awesome. It's tough to listen to him talk. His voice is like chalk grating on the blackboard. Can't figure out why anyone would want to listen to him! Aside from his nauseating voice he thinks he knows it all...he is arrogant and opinionated to boot!

HAVE TO WONDER?? | 3:49 p.m. Nov. 15, 2009

D-Will is out 2 games on the road

1. We BLOW OUT the Sixers...we could not even do that to the Knicks with D-Will running the point.

2. Second game of a back to back and we come back from 16 down at the Cavaliers to push it to the wire???

The team COMPETED hard BOTH GAMES WILLIAMS (our supposed star/leader) WAS GONE.

What does that say?

PRICE GETs THE BENCH | 3:51 p.m. Nov. 15, 2009

Maynor has proven he is better than Price at running the offense. He is much better at getting into the lane and breaking down the defense AND making the pass to set up his team mates.

Sorry, Price is a great team guy and a good energy guy but clearly Maynor is a FAR SUPERIOR point guard for this team.

Back to the bench Price!!!

Also | 4:14 p.m. Nov. 15, 2009

While we are at it we should bench Brewer and play Matthews too.

Brewers defense is a joke (Ray Allen had a layup drill against Brewer) and if I have to watch anymore of Brewers missed WIDE OPEN jumpshots...I am not sure what I will do but I nearly put my fist through my 52" Samsung the last few games.

Brewer is no shooting guard so lets stop pretending so this team can move ahead.

Matthews is actually someone who can spread the floor which is what this team desperately needs in order to get Boozer some room to operate.

Both Maynor and Matthews have consistently hit from the outside so their men have to guard them. It is no coincidence that Boozer had BIG games both times they played/started.

todd from santa ana | 7:27 p.m. Nov. 15, 2009

hee hee

Locke is "21st century"

"jazz by 7"
"jazz by 9"

I am going to stand up and "applaud our boys from utah"

Does not respond to emails either unless you say he is the greatest Charley Brown

Keep #23 | 2:48 a.m. Nov. 16, 2009

Yes, Michael Jordan was a great player. But what about: Chamberlain, Byrd, Magic, Jabbar, West, Stockton, etc. etc. Will all of their numbers be retired by the NBA as well?

Keep #23 in the league!
