What's new

Juice, nuts hanging, Jail Blazers, and humility

A lot of people have been drinking the juice.
We're 2-8 over the last 10, squeaking out a win over a Parker-less SA team and beating the struggling Heat who were without their 2nd franchise player (Bosh). I'm sure after the Jazz win against Orlando or Charlotte and get home victories against Philly and Minnesota, there will be much dancing and singing.

Good win against Miami. But Utah also had the same type of performance in game #3 against Phoenix when every shot was falling. I'm not going to get juiced until Utah has shown they can consistently compete against the better teams in the league, especially at home.

REALITY juice!
 
LeBronesque heroics are not welcome BTW. That too-visible, chest-thumbing (but actually homophobic) macho attitude is nothing but a disquise for little ****** syndrome.
Jazz have to execute and stick to their game plan.
NBA needs more Stocktons and Malones.

Wait what? Homophobic?

While Stockton and Malone are indeed some incredible players, and the basketball gods know the respect I have for them, neither one of them have rings to show for it. While, I would agree that this is a team sport and not individual like tennis or swimming, it's the players that have shown over the top heroics who have succeeded in bringing championship(s) to their respective franchises. Go down the line and most of them aren't afraid to do what they have to do. To be sure, there are no absolutes.

yup, that is what i was "trying" to write.
real guys do it without fanfare.
Lebronesque hero-ball is what i was complaining about.
Stockton is a leader. He would have been one, if he had been an USMC captain for example.
He would lead the men in harm's way and he would lead'em in front.
Overpaid punks like Harden or D12 or LBJ are just media balloons.
