Starter
Utah killing Denver in the second quarter tonight. Melo getting locked down by Kirilenko: has only 4 points on 2 for 11 shooting.

Kirilienko also has four blocks in this game.
 
The Jazz look like a helluva team, not just an early season flash n the pan. Boozer was a great, albeit tainted, pick-up. And they're getting all this done without their two PGs. Add Arroyo, who is going to be very good this year, and they'll step it up even another notch. Might as well give Kirilenko DPY right now and Sloan the coach of the year award he should have gotten years ago. I really think the Jazz will beat out the T-Wolves for first in their division.


And the Mavs look good too. Too many natural defenders for even Nellie to screw up the defense.
 
I agree, utah are very impressive this year and AK proves that you can play lockdown defense without help from the refs, or without trying to injure other teams players intentionally. I wish they would suspend any player who gets under any player who is coming down after a jump shot. I mean suspend them forever, they are not supposed to be in the league at all
