However, I still like watching NBA and now I think what the heck, let me restart the blog.
A few things,
- As a matter of fact, I am not a loyal Jazz fans anymore after Coach Sloan is gone. However, I still like following their games. (Ouch!

It's a premature question since Bulls have not locked down the No. 8 seed yet. But I do look forward to the Cavaliers-Bulls Series.
We always had an edge over Suns so I do believe we could beat them in the final regular season game and clinch No. 3 seed. I foresee we could walk into Western Conference Semi-Final, easily.

Jazz is currently winning quite some games with style. Easy Win, resting some players, or injured players.
With this form we could go for No.2 / 3 which would make our playoff life much easier. Let's hope this post does not jinx it.
Josh Smith had a sick putback-buzzer beater tonight.

Just saw the highlights. I very much enjoy the play of Millsap's block, AK held the ball, passed to D Will and slowly ran to the front court and ambushed the whole Mavericks defense with a in-your-face dunk on Dirk.

We should be happy because we get the win from behind (at one point we trailed by 17 pts).
AK had 25 pts, led Jazz scoreboard. He recently took all the minutes from CJ.
Boozer, 21 pts, 20 rebs. wow.

During my "hibernation", Utah Jazz is doing okay.....-ish.
We saw our Maynor gone, but on the other hand we certainly enjoyed the Winning Shot of Sudianta Gaines, though we are not sure whether he will return after the 2nd 10-day contract.
Today Easy Win over Nets made our record 25-18, which made us sitting at No.6 in West.
