  • Analysis:

    The Utah Jazz are back among the Western Conference contenders, and with a young and talented one-two punch like Deron Williams and Carlos Boozer, they should stay there for years to come. But the Jazz certainly have room to improve. They need to become a better defensive team, and they could use some more firepower off the bench.

    From The Media:

    "Is it possible that the Jazz's missing player was sitting behind their bench the whole time? I'm not saying Kyrylo Fesenko, my favorite quote producer, was ready to play in that series, but executive vice president Kevin O'Connor and the coaches need to determine soon whether Fess can play a role for them as an inside presence or if they must look elsewhere."
