The Utah Jazz | as seen by Basketball John

Whoa, slow down.  You ain’t got to hit the gas like that.  Save some posts for the future.  It’s full speed tonight.  And if I don’t get the two more posts in tonight like I plan, then I’ll just remove this sentence.

• We need to hear/read the conversations between Dee & Deron - Dee’s obviously got something bottled up he’d like to say about LHM.  And I think we all need to hear it.  If, and that’s a kind of big if, Deron leaves, it will be because of Miller and not Sloan.
• A budding rivalry? - Would you rather be embarrassed once or embarrassed the over the course of the whole series?  I’ll take a facial for a series win any day.  Or course that’s all you’ll hear about from GS fans.
• And they pay Hollinger how much?  Okay, I guess Larry gets paid quite well.  But this reminds me of the Bourne Identity scene where Bourne thinks up an elaborate scheme to get some information at a bank.  And Marie simply walks in and asks for it.  Too much thought can be put into these things.
• The Jazz Bear - Still the most popular Jazz personality.  And Boozer signed a “Hannah Montana” book?  They’re in a library and this was all they could find to sign?
• The Jazzbot is under attack - Another part of the rivalry heating up?  And having hapringsucks.com on jazzbots.com would be akin to having deadspin.com write for espn.com.
• He can hear the tractors calling. - For some fans, they’ve known no other coach other than Sloan.  It’s like the new light bulbs that can last 15-20 years.  One day the light bulb finally burns out and your teenager asks, “What the hell was that?”
