USAToday High Fives 

Post#1 » by Racer X » Sat Apr 26, 2008 4:10 pm

Do not know if anyone saw this in Thursdays USA Today but they finally revealed their picks for the 5 greatest players in Jazz Franchise history (including the NO years).

Pretty good picks. It was tough I think to pick between Horny and Mark Eaton.

Whats up with Hot Rod picking Truck Robinson though? In terms of contributions to the franchise is he really up there

I would go....

Stockton
Pistol
Dantley
Malone
Eaton

That team would have been devistating.

I'm completely 100% with Batronuj. Pistol in todays league would be beyond insane.

I'll cheat on mine. Pistol Pete belongs back in New Orleans...

Gotta be Stock, Hornacek, AD, Karl, and Eaton.

Bryon Russell would be on there if Michael didn't bitch-slap him out of Clutch Russ into Air [Ball] Russ.

Pistol (puts the Jazz on the map)
Stockton (best pure point guard the game will ever see)
Malone (Power,Power and more Power)
Horny (beautiful shot from anywhere)
A.D. (soon might be replaced by D-Will because he also played good years for the Pistons)
