Smith The Salt Lake Tribune Published Feb 8, 2012 10:28AM MDT Indianapolis • Al Jefferson, Devin Harris and Raja Bell all said the same exact thing.

Player of the Week: Week 6

Despite going an “eh” 2-2 last week, I’m going to say it was a good week for the Jazz. While the team suffered a heartbreaker to the Clippers and an ugly loss to the Warriors, both losses were sandwiched between impressive victories vs the Blazers and the Lakers (and a win vs LA feels like 5 wins for us Jazz fans). Utah now sits at 5th place in a stacked Western Conference...

Go Big Or Go Home!

Let’s say Woody Allen and Jiminy Glick matched up against Conan O’brien and Richard Kiel in a 2-on-2 pick-up game.  One would expect the taller pair to run away with the victory 9 out of 10 times.  Last night against the Jazz, it wasn’t Glick and Allen but Monta Ellis and Stephen Curry that went against all odds and took over the game despite the presence of...
