Game to pay attention to: Spurs vs. Jazz

San Antonio (2-1) at Utah (1-3)

Hell yes, we're back at this. I'm sorry, but who doesn't sport a bit of nostalgia for Dr. Dunkenstein (Darrell Griffith)? Certainly not this guy. Every chance we get, we're going vintage with the photos.

The Spurs have a goofy schedule. They've been off for five days, they'll have a back-to-back on Thursday and Friday, and then they'll be off for five more days. Then they'll get another back to back.

Obviously, David Stern's just messing with Gregg Popovich at this point. Gregg Popovich doesn't care. You could waterboard Coach Pop, and he'd come out whistling some jaunty tune about Tim Duncan(notes) going glass.

The Jazz have lost three of their first four games, but this is still a playoff team. Carlos Boozer's(notes) bound to get his licks back, Deron Williams(notes) will soon start to take over games once he realizes the truth about his supporting cast, and the schedule will even out. The coaching will stay sound, too. You could waterboard Jerry Sloan, and he'd come out whistling some jaunty tune about Tim Duncan going glass. Weird how that happens.

Just two games tonight, this is paired with the Bulls visiting Cleveland, so comment away below.

    It's strange... I was just on my way home from a brutal day at work, whistling a jaunty tune and thinking about Tim Duncan bank shots. A prophet you may indeed be.

    I hope the Jazz keep this competitive so Tim Duncan can go glass for more then 20 minutes and stop killing my fantasy team.

    KD, man that use of "waterboard" is just really troubling and disturbing.
    I'm sure you could have phrased your sentence and argument in a more
    suitable manner. You're a professional; you're better than that.
