Re: Utah Jazz - Dealing with the Hoodoo
 SALT LAKE CITY -- It's Hard to believe that a Basketball Franchise like the Utah Jazz haven't won an NBA Championship. When you look at the two players that gave the Jazz dominance in the Western Conference in the Mid 90's. John Stockton and Karl Malone. But you can understand why when in the two NBA Finals they competed in they were pipped to the championship by Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen and the Chicago Bulls who had even more dominance in the 1990's than the UTAH Jazz. The closest the Jazz have come since then were the 2006 Western Conference Finals under the leadership off Point Guard Deron Williams and long standing coach Jerry Sloan.  Hall of Famers - Malone (Left) Stockton (Right) But Since these days times have changed in Salt Lake City Jerry Sloan underwent an emotional retirement and Deron Williams was Traded to the what was then the New Jersey Nets now the Brooklyn Nets but in return for Williams the Jazz Received a Draft Picks from NJ (which would turn out to be a lottery pick in the 2011 NBA Draft) and former All-Star PG Devin Harris and Promising Bigman Derrick Favours. This article is written as Jazz Management have parted ways with GM Kevin O'Connor and Appointed their new GM who was a surprising appointment with little to no NBA experience and how to run a franchise but the new GM Liam Mackenzie is determined to start a new era for the Utah Jazz. "I am happy to have been give this position and look forward to starting a new era in the Utah Jazz franchise. I am hoping I can help erase past disappointments and shortcomings by taking this franchise forward" - Liam Mackenzie Last edited by Liam_93; 07-26-2012 at 04:35 PM. |

Re: Utah Jazz - Dealing with the Hoodoo
 SALT LAKE CITY -- After a disappointing 2011-12 Regular season the Utah Jazz will be looking to recover when the new look roster opens the 2012-13 campaign at Energy Solutions Arena when Athletic Point Guard John Wall and the Washington Wizards come to town. But The Washington Wizards will also be looking to make amends too as they finished last season with the worst record in the league 19-63 and they also lost their Number 1 pick in the 2012 NBA Draft to the Toronto Raptors. But they were shocked when Michael Kidd Gilchrist would be taken number one instead of college player of the year Anthony Davis. Jazz.com asked new head coach George Karl about the upcoming season and how he feels it should go and he said: " I think we can mayne sneak into the 8th seed in a tough conference but the vibes in the locker room are positive and we have some up and coming young talent to which we added too in this years draft and we are looking to make amends to last season and im sure the fans want that too"  John Wall will be looking to lead his Wizards to victory on Friday night.

Re: Utah Jazz - Dealing with the Hoodoo
 Wall,Crawford and Turnovers too much as Jazz fall to Wizards on Home opener SALT LAKE CITY -- Not the Openning the Utah Jazz wanted to the 12-13 Season with a blow-out 113-85 loss to the John Wall led Washington Wizards. The Jazz and Wizards squared off with the two best ranked offences in the NBA but it would be John Wall who would play second fiddle to his Backcourt partner Jordan Crawford who poured in 37 of the Wizards 113 points at the EnergySolotions Arena in Salt Lake City.  John Wall dunks on Gerald Green The Wizards got off to a hot start with Crawford scoring 6 of the Wizards 10 points in the opening 7 mins and John Wall was 3/3 from the field come the 5 minute mark in the 1st. But in the second quarter the Jazz would reply with efficient scoring of the bench from young bigmen Enes Kanter and Derrick Favours who were both 3/3 off the bench come HT where the Jazz went in with the score at 46-49 with the points leaders for each Paul Millsap with 10 and Crawford with 17 pts.  Alec Burks scored 12 points with 2/5 from 3pt range but it wasnt enough In the second half the Jazz's lead was fast wiped out as they piled up their turnover count which was the main reason they couldn't get as much possessions as the Wizards therefore not having the same efficiency as the Wizards. The Jazz would have to quarters after the half with less than 20 pts where the Wizards would pull away with two sub 30pt quarters leading to a opening day blow-out loss to the Wizards. The Jazz coach George Karl would have a few words to say after the game: "We Just couldnt take care of the ball out there tonight leading to sloppy possessions and being left for dead on the fast break and something needs to change in the next game" Hopefully it can as the Jazz will be on a road trip to Toronto to visit the Raptors hoping to make amends but it won't be easy as the Raptors and #1 Pick Michael Kidd-Gilchrist will be a tough team to beat.  Box Score vs Wizards

Re: Utah Jazz - Dealing with the Hoodoo
 Jazz fall to 0-2 in OT thriller in Canada  Toronto -- The Utah Jazz and Toronto Raptors played out a thriller which went all the way to overtime where the Jazz fought back from an 18 point deficit after HT to push the game to OT with an Alec Burks 3 pointer with no time on the clock in the 4th Q. The Toroto Raptors came out of the gate the stronger team with their young PF Ed Davis rebounding the offensive glass aggressively this would help him on his way to 23 rebounds on the night. Star Raptors center Andrea Bargnani started of cold but would heat up later on in the game but the story would not be the same for high flying shooting guard Demar DeRozan who almost had a triple double to help the raptors on the way to the W where they shot 56% into the half. For the Jazz young big men Enes Kanter and Derrick Favours would again be key off the bench for the Utah Jazz comeback cause after the half as well as the two starting bigs Al Jefferson and Paul Millsap. When the Jazz trimmed the Raptors lead to 10 the Jazz's rookie forward Harrison Barnes would block #1 Draft pick Michael Kidd Gilchrist and the Jazz would ride momentum after that as early in the 4th Quarter Enes Kanter would hit an tough contact up and under and convert on the and one to trim the Raptors lead to six. The Jazz did take the lead at about the 5 minute mark but and one's from Andrea Bargnani and Demar DeRozan would give the Raptors a 6 point lead with 3 minutes to go. The Jazz Center Al Jefferson at one point grabbed 4 offensive rebounds in a row but the Jazz could not convert on the second chance points. but Alec Burks would hit a game tying 3 with no time on the clock to take the game into OT.  Burks explodes as he takes the game to OT "It felt good when we came back to tie the game and for me to hit the three to tie it was amazing I could hear coach Karl shouting - Take the shot kid - and I was a little nervous but relieved when I made it" - Alec Burks on his game tying three But it was in OT that DeRozan and Bargnani were too much for the Jazz defence as they would combine for the full 10 points. The Jazz had a chance to win the game again with no time on the clock as Alec Burks grabbed his own miss and would kick it out to an open Devin Harris who would miss the game winning basket. Jazz coach George Karl was asked about the game and he said: "We showed great heart and resiliency to come back form that kind of a deficit but sometimes your just not the best team and that was us tonight but we can take positives and go back to Utah with out heads held high and hopefully we can erase the first 2 games and get the W" The Jazz will try and get their first win at home to their former Star PG Deron Williams and the New Jersey Nets as he returns to his old stomping ground.
