For better or worse, through victory and defeat, we follow the Jazz on their path to the ring.

Brad Rock: Timeout should end for Jerry Sloan | Deseret News

What do you think?  Should Jerry come back, or should he be content with the way he went out?  Check out the above link to Brad Rock’s opinion on Deseret News.  I say get him back on the sidelines, working his magic with a few young Bucks (excuse the pun), and get the man a Coach of the Year for once in his awesome career.  Lube up the artificial knees, Jerry: it’s time!

B.O.B. brings us into the 2012-13 regular season, reminding us that it is game time for the Utah Jazz.  The Dallas Mavericks are in town, fresh off a nice victory against the Lakers.  Hopefully the Jazz give them a good show tonight in EnergySolutions Arena.  Game time, baby!!

The preseason is upon us, and the Jazz pulled out a nice come-from-behind victory over the Lakers last night.  Enes Kanter finished with 14 points and 14 rebounds; he is looking pretty good so far, supposedly because he “worked his butt off [in the summer] and works every day in practice,” according to Tyrone Corbin.

As anybody with a brain will tell you, the preseason doesn’t mean much, other than getting some game time for young players.  The real deal starts Halloween night against Dallas, and true Jazz fans couldn’t be more excited.  They’ve brought in a few new faces, and shipped off a couple old, disgruntled dead-weights (Raja Bell and his stubborn ego).

There’s a lot of hope this year, but the West is looking tougher than ever.  It may be a real feat to even make the playoffs, given the strength of the top 10 teams in the Western Conference.  Jazz fans can only hope the team gels nicely and a true superstar somehow emerges on the team (that’s not too big a…Favor…to ask, is it?)  Utah is still a young team, and they have a chance to build a team that can really compete in the coming years.

Let’s hope it happens this year!
