"You Gotta Love It Baby" Official Jazz thread

Dude was a phenomenal passer. Assist ratios with the Jazz:

20.1
21.2
22.1
23.9
24.7
16.3

By comparison, Ronnie Brewer with the Jazz:

5.7
9.7
10.1

CJ Miles:

14.3
10.0
11.5
10.4

Horny's passing would blow away everyone on the current roster save Deron (including AK, who is a very good passer).

I needed to get called on that. Horny was indeed an excellent passer. I believe he had some seasons with the Suns in which he averaged 7-8 assists per.

Price starting at the 2 tonight. Just another reason to be excited about the upcoming season!

Maynor continues to play well. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see him take the backup role from Price sooner rather than later.

Matthews seems to be playing well too.. I'm guessing he makes the squad.

Oh, please make it sooner. Price is not a point guard.

I agree. It will be interesting to see what happens with the roster given Harps health and now CJ out for a while. I think Matthews is almost a lock to make the team.

On a side note, Morris Almond has done nothing with Orlando this summer. I doubt he makes an NBA team this year.

Maynor being able to shoulder some of the load from Williams will be a huge boost for tha Jazz. If Williams can be a bit fresher then that should give him a little more gas toward the end of the year. And if I no longer worry about leads disappearing when Williams leaves, I'm all for it.

Maynor is going to be tough to keep off the floor. Not a great shooting night, but he's doing a lot of nice things.

I am still just really excited that the Jazz picked a PG in the first round.

From the updates ESPN was texting me it seemed like Blake Griffin had a pretty good game.

If he was up against Boozer of course he would have a great game.

DWill looked as into that interview as Bronco does most of the time.

Give Larry the rock, guys.

From TrueHoop: "On a more positive note, Larry Hughes of the Knicks hit a jump shot with 8:30 remaining to snap his 0-for-18 slump to start the preseason. Hughes finished 1-for-3, upping his accuracy rate to 5 percent in New York's five exhibition games." That's the Big Shot Larry we know and loath.

Here's hoping Coach D'Antoni gives Hughes a green light on shooting this season.

Sweet. Looks good for the Jazz getting the Knicks pick this year. Top 5 baby!!!

Maynor continues to do nice things on the floor. I think he's got the backup position more or less locked up.
