ESPN Power Rankings

A tie likely doesn't count in the statistic quoted since it didn't end the game with no time left on the clock.

I don't know about that but it forces the game to overtime. Someone could argue buzzer-beaters should include end-of-quarter shots or shot-clock expiring ones. It's all semantics.
 
First thing that came to mind besides Sundiata and Mo was Deron Williams @ Charlotte in 2010, but checking the box score now, there was 0,8 seconds still on the clock when he hit the winner so that obviously does not qualify.

D-Will's layup against Lebron in the ESA was a game winning buzzer beater wasn't it?

2005-06 is the cutoff for 9 seasons.
You're right, but I think the "9 season" statement by the writer has to be a mistake. I checked the entire game log from the 2005-06 season, and there were no game winning buzzer-beaters by the Jazz that season.

However in the 2004-2005 season, Okur made a layup against the Spurs at the buzzer to snap an 18-game losing streak against them.

This HAS to be the third buzzer beater.

Edited: Good catch Nightmare...went back and read your previous post and you already mentioned this game. I think this is the one.

This week Utah moved up 2 spots to #22 (ahead of Indy, Charlotte, Boston, Orlando, LA Lakers, Detroit, New York , Philly and Minnesota).

It had this to say (which will bug some people hahahaha!): "Gordon Hayward's lone visit of the season to Charlotte reminded us yet again how well he's lived up to the Hornets' max four-year offer sheet that Utah opted to match. On a really young team, in a truly brutal conference, Hayward shoulders lots of responsibility and sports a PER of 19.9"

Fixed.
Wouldn't be surprised to see them move as high as #17 by the end of the season. They might be better than every non-playoff EC team (and maybe even a couple that DO make the playoffs). In the WC, they could overtake Denver and Sacramento.
