I was a Jazz fan back in the Stockton to Malone days, but my loyalties drifted elsewhere when Stockton retired and Malone, one of my favorite players, signed with the evil Lakers. However I still like to see them do well, and they should be pretty good this year. Deron Williams should be as good or better than last year once he's fully recovered from his ankle injury, and Boozer is in a contract year, so expect big things from him as well.

Will miss da playoffs for da second straight year.

One of the most underrated franchises in the NBA. Until this year, hasn't missed the playoffs since 1985. Jerry Sloan is a great coach, and nearly took his team to the playoffs this year when everybody picked them to finish last. With them having a good free-agency offseason, the Jazz Seem to be heading into a new era of success after losing Stockton and Malone.

"Yeah, but they've never won a title" doesn't mean anything. God himself descended from on high in the form of MJ to stop them from getting that monkey off their back and even He needed a blind ref (the famous Byron Russel push-off). Unfortunately the chips are down and out for the Jazz. What young, rich person wants to spend the better part of the year in Utah? 5 more years and they'll be the laughing stock of the west.

Beautiful arena they play in...

the old stockton to malone not workin like it used 2

OLD but still running.

Karl Malone and John Stockton are too old! There just too old! But there always going to be good! They've been doing it for 17 Years. Kobe is 22 and he already has won a title and Stockton and Malone haven't. Kobe will be the best. Watch and learn.

Karl Malone is the finest and best player in the league!

Sorry, John and Karl, no championship this year either.
