Better than the Blazers even. I think it was smart for them to just say screw defense and throw it up.


Blazers looked like a minor league team against Lakers.
I was totally unable to figure out what Nate McMillan's pretend of his players; it looked like a coachless team...

God so many downer Jazz fans after a night where we win without the best player on the floor.

I thought the jazz played great last night....

The jazz playing without Deron Williams is like a player playing without his spine....so the jazz played well without their spine :)

Gotta admit, winning without our best players has always got to be positive no matter how crappy we really did play. get back soon deron.

If Korver made the second free throw and there was a lane violation on Birdman he still gets another FT right? I can't remember, haven't seen it in a while.

Nah they only call it if they miss the free throw, otherwise they just let it go.

According to todays show description David James agreed with me:

"DJ and PK talk about the Worl Series playng in winter like tempretuers and how cold the Tamp team looked. DJ questioned the Jazz defense and the 16 turnovers and being early signs of future struggles. PK told him to settle down because there is no reason to panic after 1 game. DJ sees the same team that had several bad losses last year and could turn the ball over at an alarming rate."

Don't you realize those guys have to come up with something to talk about on the radio, so they had to have something bad to talk about. DJ, though I like his odd couple routine with PK, is sometimes not the most visionary person. Good for you finding a buddy, but I'll still be ignorantly happy about a good win.

Word is, South Beach is ecstatic that they
won't be seeing Millsaps talents again this season...
