Default Do You Feel This Way?

For some reason I think that no one besides Utah knows who the Jazz are!! The Jazz are one of the best teams in the league, and I just don't feel they get any attention. Maybe because I'm from here. Carlos Boozer and Deron Williams are to of the best players in the league. Do you guys here about the Jazz? I mean my favorite football team is the Titans. My favorite basketball team besides the Jazz are the Nuggets. For some reason I feel like no one outside of Utah even like the Jazz lol. Anyone else feel this way?

haha. They passed the "torch" onto Deron and Carlos. Carlos is in the top 10 players for rebounds and points. Also he is in the top 5 for double doubles. Also him and Deron both shoot over 50%

Williams is a good point guard yes. I'll give you that. But that article on the best power forwards is almost a year old , and no Boozer is not in the top 10 for scoring. As far as the 50% shooting average goes , the top 50 NBA scoring leaders almost all shoot 50% or close to it.

The Jazz have a decent team and have managed to make it as the 4th seed in the west which is a huge achievement. But i dont think they can beat the likes of the suns , or the spurs in the playoffs.

The Jazz aren't as noticed for two big reasons:
1) They are playing in the loaded west that is filled with six teams that all have a good chance of winning the championship
2) Most of those good teams have superstars that the media loves to talk about...suns/shaq/amari/nash...lakers/kobe...spurs/duncan and so on.

Having said that many of the bball analysts that I listen to have the Jazz as that team many aren't talking about but really could shock everyone.

Don't be upset TICL that people aren't talking about your team. If they are as good as you think then everyone will be talking about them in June when it really matters.

The Jazz abolutely KILLED the Spurs last night lol. The Spurs only had 64 points the whole game. It was like 90 to 64. I know that's not the playoffs, but it is still amazing to hold ANY team under 65 points.

That and numerous other playoff series. I probably hate the Jazz as much as I hate the Spurs. It was very satisfying to see the Jazz lose in the playoffs every year and never win a championship.

Basketball?Never heard of it.

Are you referring to the sport where a spherical orb is attempted to be placed through a suspended metal hoop?

Either way,T-Mac will eat your soul.

I used to like Utah Jazz.
Back when they had Stockton, the Mailman and what was that other Stockton-esque family guy who always wiped his face before throwing a free throw...


Haven't cared about basketball for ages now.

Can't believe I remember that so fast. I guess I was a big bb fan back then.
