Before you go crazy - no, I'm not saying we're headed for the WCF. But I haven't been as excited about the Jazz since I was during that season. D-Will obviously emerged as arguably the best PG in the league that year, and we hadn't seen anything like it in a long time. What he brought to the court, and how much better he made his teammates, made Jazz games insanely fun to watch that year.
Even though we don't have the same level of veteran talent as that squad did, I think this team is going to be the same in that EVERY game will be fun. They seem to be playing with a sense of confidence that they can murk any team in the league, and that in itself will make games where we're 'outmatched' fun and competitive.
An injury or two will probably take the wind out of the sails pretty quickly, so hopefully we can stay healthy and let the chips fall where they may. I'm not going to make any predictions, but I do know that prior to the 06-07 season not many people even talked about the Jazz as a legit team in the West.
Our time is coming!
