JAZZ RUMORS & GOSSIP

Utah Jazz Web Round Up 5-16-2012

Who the Hell is Josh Selby? That’s not the real title but you know he wanted it to be. by Jody Genessy I wouldn’t expect anything less from Jody. Tongue and cheek at its best. The great thing about this article is that Jody is calling out the random media member that voted for him. Calling out people for being idiots is ok in my book. Thank you Jody.Salt City Hoops Podcast with...

The athlete housing market had slowed to a trickle over the past seven days or so until Jazz guard Devin Harris went and listed his 7400 sq. ft. Dallas mansion for $2.1 million. Remember Harris? He had the four seasons in Dallas before being traded to the Nets in the Jason Kidd deal. During Harris’ time in the Big D he bought this giant house. What do you get in this deal?...

Utah Jazz Around the Web

Utah Jazz Around the Web Al Jefferson Stats Breakdown from LockedonSports Locke is fantastic with stats. I also like that he has broken it down into categories instead of throwing it all into one post. It is difficult to write “sloany” stat filled posts. Those of you reading that have tried, know what I am talking about. Jerry Sloan #2 on the Free Agent Coaches List. Tom Ziller...

2012 Utah Jazz Player Reports: Blake Ahearn

The last guy on the bench, but the first guy off it. On April 10th, 2012 the Utah Jazz signed Blake Ahearn to a ten day contract, and then extended that contract through the end of the year on April 20th. For those of you that watch the Jazz games regularly you may have noticed something about Blake Ahearn. He is a high energy guy that pops off the bench when a huge play is made...

C.J. Miles says Jazz were 'put off' by Jefferson's comments on Spurs

Prior to Game 4 of the San Antonio Spurs-Utah Jazz first-round series, Jazz center Al Jefferson remarked that he couldn't see any team beat the Spurs, let alone the Jazz, and showed 'mad respect" for San Antonio. "Right now, they just playing well, man. I ain't never seen nothing like this," Jefferson said. He added: "I'm happy to be in the playoffs...

Jazz reach goal yet not satisfied with playoff run

As the seconds ticked down Monday in Game 4 of what would be a first-round playoff sweep, Utah Jazz forward Derrick Favors cursed all the way off the court. It was a sign that while goals may have been met, no one was satisfied. Less than 24 hours later, Jazz brass and teammates echoed those sentiments as exit interviews were conducted and lockers cleared for the summer. Yes,...

Al Jefferson says no one will beat the Spurs before their series with the Jazz ends

Many thought they were too old, but the Spurs emerged as legitimate title contenders during the lockout-shortened season. As expected, they have handled the Jazz with relative ease through the first three games of the opening round of the playoffs. San Antonio currently has a 3-0 series lead over Utah, but the Jazz have not given up just yet. Actually, at least one of them has. Before...

Millsap taking Jazz 3-0 hole personal

Paul Millsap is known for his determination on the basketball court as much as his skill. He came in to league known as an undersized big man who could hustle and rebound. He's turned himself in one of best power forwards in the league, not to mention the Utah Jazz's emotional leader. It would make sense then, that unlike Al Jefferson's kind words about the San Antonio...

Utah Jazz should have unleashed Devin Harris sooner

With the Utah Jazz going into Game 4 already down 3-0 in their series with the San Antonio Spurs, there doesn’t seem to be any hope of salvaging this series. No team has won a series after losing the first three games and the Jazz aren’t in any danger of changing that statistic.Utah hasn’t even been able to keep the score close. All three losses have been by 10 points or more...

Kanter's speech to fans features epic 'mic drop'

The Utah Jazz had their rookie Enes Kanter give the end of the year speech to Jazz fans and it didn’t disappoint.

Utah Jazz announcer completely loses his mind over missed layup

I think we're beginning to see mounting empirical evidence that the packed NBA schedule is beginning to take its toll on the league's broadcasters. First there was the now infamous tirade launched by Ian Eagle against Mike Fratello. Then, there was Jeff Van Gundy flipping out on flopping and challenging the league office to act. But, perhaps the craziest NBA announcing...

Kirilenko's wife wears 'Scream' mask in stands

Andrei Kirilenko has one of the more unusual marriages in NBA history, and it may be the polar opposite of the immense insecurity of the infamous union between Doug Christie and his wife, Jackie. Masha Lopatova, probably best known for giving Kirilenko permission to sleep with another woman once a year, wore a Halloween mask during a Russian basketball game while her husband played...
