Preview: Kings at Jazz, Game 6

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 15:00:32 -0500

by Rich Pedroncelli - AP View full size photo » THE OPPONENT The Jazz come in at a deceiving 2-3. In the ledger, Utah is only one game better than Sacramento. But look at that impossible schedule for the Jazz: at Denver, Clippers, Rockets, at Dallas, Spurs. Maybe you'd dream of 3-2 or even 4-1 as a Jazz fan. But 2-3 ain't a sneeze. That schedule has two potentially great teams and three good teams. All of them shou...

Game Preview #4 - San Antonio Spurs @ Utah Jazz - Back from Vacation

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 10:46:15 -0500

Did everyone enjoy their vacation from the NBA? And we're back. It's Thursday (for which Lauri is very happy), and after a strange four day break in the schedule, the Spurs are embarking on a little road trip, with the first stop in Utah. More after the jump. Welcome to the first truly hack preview of the season. This is much, much harder than it looks (major props to Wayne, Tim, LD, and davis for making this look easy). However, I am excited that o...

by Holly MacKenzie/@stackmack Memphis Grizzlies in Sacramento to take on the Kings. Allen Iverson’s season and Memphis debut. Rudy Gay playing for an extension. OJ Mayo playing for respect. The Kings? They were playing for their first win of the season. Bet you didn’t expect the late night matchup between the Kings and Grizz to be the game of the week, did you? I was amped to watch Ivy, always love watching Mayo and of course, wanted to check out Tzvi’s boy, Casspi. DidnR...

Jazz Win Streak Up To 7, Crown Kings 102-89

Sun, 01 Mar 2009 01:55:15 -0500

The Utah Jazz have the luxury of when their starting lineup is slumping, they have a bench that in my opinion is one of the better benches in the NBA.? Nonetheless, in their game against the Sacramento Kings on Sunday, their bench didn?t do so much; but then again it didn?t have to as Ronnie [...]

NBA Gems (This early into the NBA 07'-08' Season)

Mon, 05 Nov 2007 12:16:38 -0500

The Scintillating Six: 1) Brendan Haywood (Wizards) - With the exit of his arch rival (Etan Thomas) due to open heart surgery, the center spot of the Washington Wizards belongs solely to Haywood and he hasn't disappointed by coming up with the first three game double-double of his career. Brendan is currently averaging 10 markers, 13.7 boards, and 3 rejections per game. 2) John Salmons (Kings)- With Mike Bibby out with an injured thumb and Ron Artest serving a seven game suspension, someone had to step up. Enter John Salmons and his 21 points, 5 rebounds, and 6 assists. Now I know why he turned down that deal with the Raptors to sign with the Kings last year :) 3) Kelenna Azubuike (Warriors) - Hard surname to spell but his game is everywhere with 20 points and 1.7 3's per game. Golden State coach Don Nelson loves Azubuike's work ethic and this bodes well for Kelenna, especially when Stephen Jackson returns from his seven game suspension (that was imposed by the NBA following his guilty plea to a felony charge of criminal recklessness for firing a gun into the air outside an Indianapolis club). 4) Carlos Delfino (Raptors) - Finally free of the Motor City's overcrowded backcourt, this native of Santa Fe, Argentina is making Toronto Raptors GM Bryan Colangelo an early candidate for GM of the Year with averages of 7.7 points, 5 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 2 steals, and 1.7 3 pointers made per contest. 5) Ronnie Brewer (Jazz) - A first-round pick of the Utah Jazz a season ago (he went 14th), Brewer has supplanted Gordan Giricek as the team's starting SG to the tune of 16 points and 2.8 steals through four games. 6) Al Horford (Hawks) - Taken with the 3rd pick in the 07' Draft that featured Oden and Durant. Florida's Al Horford needs to early shake off foul trouble (4 fouls in less than 4 minutes into the second half of their opening night game against the Dallas Mavericks) and make the most of his minutes on the floor while Atlanta Hawks center--Zaza Pachulia--is out (until mid-November with a sprained knee).
