People tend to rag on Jason Hart more than he deserves, in my opinion.
In case you haven’t heard, the Utah Jazz have traded Jason Hart to the Clippers for veteran point guard Brevin Knight, much to the delight of many Jazz fans. (Well, the Jason Hart leaving, at any rate. Most Jazz fans don’t know much about Brevin Knight unless they play Fantasy Basketball.)
With the twenty-third pick in the 2008 NBA Draft, the Utah Jazz select…
Well, the Jazz couldn’t quite pull it out against a very defeatable Los Angeles Lakers team.
Where should the Jazz go from here?
The Houston Rockets apparently still had a grudge for losing the seventh game to the Utah Jazz in the first round last year.
They came into the Energy Solutions Arena and beat the Jazz, largely behind the play of one man — Tracy McGrady. The Utah Jazz are known to allow high profile shooting guards to have their way offensively — which is largely the reason why they picked up Jason Hart and Ronnie Price in the offseason.
Well, apparently they haven’t improved much in that department as McGrady went off for 47 points, but it is still early in the season. (more…)
The Jazz made it to the Western Conference finals last year.
They didn’t make too many off-season moves, but they didn’t really need to make too many either. They have a nice core of Carlos Boozer, Deron Williams, and Mehmet Okur, and some other great players including veterans Matt Harpring and Andrei Kirilenko, and second round surprise Paul Millsap.
The big question that every Jazz fan is asking himself or herself this year is “Will the Jazz be better this year?”
