Posted in The Houston Rockets, despite not having a true center – unless you consider 6’6″ Chuck Hayes a true center – and the misfortune of playing in a conference where playing .500 ball doesn’t guarantee you a playoff berth, continue to amaze folks around the National Basketball Association as they somehow find ways to win. These same [...]

Jazz Pulls Away In Fourth, Hold Off Bobcats 83-78
The Charlotte Bobcats got together with the Utah Jazz on Monday night, the fans at EnergySolutions Arena – at least the knowledgeable ones – were not expecting an offensive shootout, as opposed to the Phoenix Suns visiting Salt Lake City. The game, as expected, was a defensive battle for 48 minutes. While the first three [...]
Jazz Win Streak Ends At 5, Thunder Prevails 115-108
The Utah Jazz has been as of late one of the hotter teams in the NBA, having won their last five games prior to their game against the Oklahoma City Thunder Monday night at Energy Solutions Arena. Both teams shot very well, with each team shooting 51 percent from the floor; however, Oklahoma City held [...]

Al Jefferson scored 24 points for the now 4-0 Jazz. “My whole career, I’ve had to score against two, three people,” said Jefferson. “It just feels good to catch the ball and go up.

Boozer, D-Will Combine for 55 As Jazz Bounce Nuggets 117-106
I’m beginning to think that the Denver Nuggets are a team that senses that they need to put up or shut up as they, prior to their game against the Utah Jazz at Energy Solutions Arena on Sunday, haven’t played their best basketball. And as a result, they were down 2-1 in their best-of-seven series. The [...]
D-Will, Boozer Lead Jazz Past Nuggets 114-111; Series Tied At 1
The Utah Jazz have to be admired (pitied?) for at least one thing: the lack of healthy wide bodies. Usually, if you’re a playoff team and your big men are benched long-term because of injury, the chances of surviving the playoffs are slim and none. Nonetheless, the Jazz were without the services of Andrei Kirilenko (calf) [...]
Melo’s 42 Helps Nuggets Take Game One, Bounce Jazz 126-113
The Denver Nuggets had lots of incentive during their game Saturday night agaisnt the visiting Utah Jazz; they have a relatively healthy roster, they have been bounced from the postseason early in five of the past six years and just as importantly, they have coach George Karl on their minds as he recovers from neck [...]
D-Will’s Late Jumper In OT Helps Jazz Outlast Thunder 140-139
Pure and simple, the game between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Utah Jazz could have easily been confused with a track meet as both teams attempted 184 shots and shot 50 percent or better. Kevin Durant got his points, 45 of them to be exact, but unfortunately for him, they’d go to waste as Deron Williams [...]
