Walking Wounded
The Jazz are as beat up as they've ever been right now, which is a bit frightening because we're only 12 games into the season and just about everyone on the team is under 30. Our two best players are sidelined, Boozer with a quad strain that sounds suspiciously bad to me although Jazz brass ...

The Revolution Will Not Be Televised
I couldn't help but notice last week that the Jazz's November 12 game was to be televised on ESPN. As a Jazz fan living outside of the Beehive State, I mark these games on my calendar. But as I sat down with my bowl of popcorn and my big foam finger, ESPN pulled the game . . . which made me ...

 Heating Up
Heating Up
When the Jazz are healthy and playing at home, they’re pretty lethal. The Suns found out … · CJ Miles hit for 21 points on 9-13 shooting, his best performance of the season. He had 15 points in the first quarter alone. With some confidence ...

 "If I Can Pick Up Some Fouls, I Will"
"If I Can Pick Up Some Fouls, I Will"
Don't worry Jazz fans, because Jarron Collins is being launched into the starting line up tonight against Shaq. And what did Jarron have to say about his opportunity tonight? "If I can pick up some fouls against him, I will." I think that is a ...

Playing Short-handed
Andrei Kirilenko... sprained index finger. Deron Williams... sore ankle. Mehmet Okur... attending his seriously ill father. The Jazz are much maligned . Kirilenko can't even catch the basketball. Deron may have come back from injury too early ...
At least he's flexible...
We, at The Cowhide Globe, have often wondered how Jarron Collins developed his mad hops, cat-like reflexes, and brute strength. Thanks to our friends at the Salt Lake Tribune , we now have our answer: yoga and distance running. In a blog post about the P3 Training Facility Collins attempted to ...

Kosta!
3-8 from the field with five boards, two blocks, and a steal in 21 minutes! He's not Shaq yet but it's a decent debut and we got a W on the road. Here's to Koufos permanently replacing Collins as Memo's backup!
He's Back
The Salt Lake Tribune is reporting that Deron Williams will play against the 76ers tonight in Philadelphia. Perhaps used sparingly, Deron is said to be ready to go. We could certainly use his leadership and court presence out there for the Jazz. Is this a good decision by the Jazz or a sign of ...

Who starts at center?
The Desnews is reporting that Memo is out for tomorrow night's game and for the foreseeable future. Apparently a family illness will keep him in Turkey. We wish Memo's family the best. The article also notes that Fesenko is in Canada working on visa issues. And Collins, aside from not really ...

How Good Are the Jazz?
After last night's loss to the Knicks the Jazz no longer have the best record in the NBA. But how good are they? We'll know more at the end of this eastern road trip, but I think the answer is "quite good". Consider the following: The Jazz are blowing teams out of the water. Our scoring ...

Knicked
In reality, the title of my post should probably read… “ticked”. At least that’s how I feel regarding this loss to the Knicks. The mighty New York Knicks of Madison Square Garden beat our Jazz 107-99 in the first game of a 5-game road swing for the Jazz on the East Coast. That’s right. New ...

Four and Oh!
What I like… More Millsap : The Sap has been phenomenal for the Jazz to begin the year. His 24-point, 9 rebound-outing vs. the Clippers on Monday was sensational. I believe Millsap will get more PT as the year progresses. 6th Man Flourishing ...

 Quite A Line!
Quite A Line!
Is Boozer still planning on going to Miami at season's end? Well, not to worry. Here is Millsap's line from last night: -32 Minutes -8 of 12 from the field (66%) -8 of 8 from the line (100%) -9 rebounds -2 assists -2 steals -1 block
Good-Bye A.I.
On behalf of the Western Conference, let me be the first to extend a warm farewell to Allen Iverson, who helped the Nuggets become mired in mediocrity during his short stint in Denver. Unfortunately, I am not as pleased to welcome Billups to the mile-high city. As a Jazz fan, I do not like ...

Who's the Nut?
This morning, the Jazz announced that they would not pick up the option on Morris Almond, the sharp-shooting guard drafted by the Jazz in the first round of the 2007 draft. Apparently, Almond was not surprised by the decision, as the writing on the ...
The Agonizing Ankle Debate
There is nothing as gut-wrenchingly-painful as a badly sprained ankle. As D Will can tell you, it hurts like the dickens. But it looks as if Deron will miss at least the next two games versus the Clipps with that bum ankle, which is probably a smart move. But, if I were the Jazz (which I am ...

Nuggets from Denver
Good morning Jazz fans. Nice, solid win for the Jazz last night, even if it was over the short-handed Nuggets. If you're like me, most of you are tired of hearing what the local hacks who cover the Jazz have to say. So this morning, let's take a look at what our friends from Denver thought about ...

Let the Regular Season Begin!
Enough talk about basketball. Finally, tonight, we get some action. The Jazz tipoff 2008-2009 at home against the Nuggets at the old Energy Solutions Thunder Palace. It looks as if Deron will not play tonight (smart move), but that doesn't mean that our starting point guard won't be the ...

And the Winner is ...
It's that happy time of the season when hope runs eternal and every team is still in the hunt for the playoffs. That's right, It's opening night of the NBA season. So before the Jazz tip off tomorrow evening, it's time for predictions. So dust off your magic eight ball , 20 sided die, and ...

The Sports Guy Has Spoken
So, it's (ESPN.com's) the Sports Guy vs. Jazz Nation, huh? After the Sports Guy ripped apart any possible comparisons for Deron Williams to Chris Paul, he made even more predictions for the NBA season and went after Jazz fans in the process. While I personally think the Sports Guy is ...
