So...Booz and DWill both out tonight.

Apparently Fes will suit up and said he CAN play tonight, and the Kouf will be in uniform as well.

It'll be interesting to see how our backcourt can match up against Evans.

Go jazz!

My prediction: Sundiata Gaines trumps Tyreke, gets in discussion for R.O.Y. :)

With no Boozer or D-Will it could get ugly. Really gonna need some guys to step up with the playmaking. We had Maynor when D-Will missed time before.

I'm really excited to see Millsap start. I hope Fes gets some time to play too.

No Deron :(

Hope we win and it's time to shave that beard off.

We still have the advantage in the frontcourt with their big men playing poorly pretty much all year, but if Tyreke blows up we'll be in trouble. Interesting to see how we handle a little adversity. Go Jazz!

I think the guards just need to neutralize their guards. The forwards need to win the game. Millsap, Memo, CJ.

First of all, kudos to Deron making his first all star game. Better late than later I suppose haha. But anyways, good luck to you guys. It is unfortunate that both Boozer and Deron will not play tonight. I was actually wanting to see them in action but next time I guess.

Not true. Just before January, Jason Thompson was averaging 16/9 for the most part of the season. But Hawes in the other hand is not up to speed for us. But recently, he seems a bit better though.

It's still true, those are Millsap starting numbers from last year. Memo and AK are clearly better at this moment. Thompson is a good player, but he's not the whole forward/center rotation.

Fes is out with an ankle injury. That's why the recalled Koufos.(sp)

Funny but the only spelling error was "They".

He's dressing and out of the boot he had to wear. I'm expecting a little bit of PT.

I didn't argue the fact that the Jazz has the advantage over our frontcourt. I argued that, loser's notion of our bigs were performing poorly all year long. Which is not true. Again, before this month, Thompson has been very good for us. He hasn't been performing poorly all year. But Hawes on the other hand, you can argue that he hasn't been at the level we wanted him to be.

Um. Don't listen to that Kings fan a few posts above me.

Trust me. We have no front-court.

Hawes and Tompson are garbage and shouldn't be any team's starting front-court. They will get eaten up tonight.

I'm a Kings fan but I also call it how I see it.

I always liked the Kings fans for that ovation they gave Stockton at the end of his career.


Webber's still a puss though.

I love how active Price is on defense, he really makes a difference on that side of the floor. His decision making however is subpar, he's really not fit for the point guard position. Too bad he's stuck there because of his height.

Price simply can't run an offense. Too many bonehead passes. If he sticks to just running what Sloan calls and not trying to be fancy, he is serviceable. We could easily lose this game tonight, this first quarter has been anything but a good showing.
