Utah Jazz at San Antonio Spurs, Nov 21, 2008 7:30 PM CST
The Jazz are coming into town on the wings of a cold front. We have to stay warm and try to amuse ourselves watching two injured teams.
Pull on your thermals, your Elmer Fudd hat, and your sock feet. Pop yourself some popcorn and get ready for B-grade hoops. It's Spurs - Jazz.

Game Time: 7:30 Spurs Time
TV: ESPN
Officials:
Keys To The Game:
- Injuries: Parker, Ginobili, Williams, Boozer are all out along with an assortment of injuries to lesser players. Harpring, Collins, Mahinmi
- Rebounds: Utah is one of the best teams in the league on the glass. We suck on the glass. As always, we'll need to do pretty well here.
- 3-pt shooting: We were 2-17 against the Nuggets. We were shooting 39% coming into that game. We need to be at 40% to create any kind of space for Tim.
Some other reading:
The jazz blog at SLC Dunk is another one that has high game thread turnout. Not at our levels mind, but they are not to be overlooked and I don't want to be shown up. Don't visit their site if you have a thing about dead animals. Utahns are apparently hunters. Me personally, I'd rather look at Hipuks' fish.
Other:
Speaking of jazz, and not the Kenny G stuff. I've recommended before, and I'll recommend again, Les McCann and Eddie Harris doing 'Compared To What'. Here's a youtube (it's not a video, just a recording) of a shortened version. This has about 4 minutes chopped off the one I'm used to listening to on Swiss Movement. I know SiMA is my antithesis and all, but I'll bet that even he likes it. Whiskey, cigar, Les McCann and Eddie Harris. Those things go together:
Ifyou guys haven't seen PtR member CMoney's work directing a video for a non-profit, you should check it out. The man does great work for a great cause. Be forewarned, it's not fun. It's serious stuff.
.
Recap (include the Three Stars): ATS will do it. Yay!

- If Boozer is out injured, why did you put his ugly mug in the 5 Utah starters? Just wondering.
- CMoney’s vid didn’t paste properly.
- Did you read my questions to you in rick2g’s recap?
- The Jazz thingie wasn’t all that bad. And I hate jazz.
- That is all.

NBA League Pass
Does anyone know if NBA league pass thru time warner cable blacks out the Spurs games in Corpus when they are being shown on KENS TV out of SA? No one at TW knows for sure and, once you’ve placed the order, you cannot cancel it and get a refund if those games are indeed blacked out. Helluva policy.

Damn, now that you’re here I might as well tone it down and say it’s downright disgusting and you’re a sicko.
Seriously, though, where I live it’s not common to see Bambi hanging from his hind legs while people knife him. It’s really shocking, and rather violent – to me. Kind of like playing against the Raptors and losing, and then posting and allegoric Jurassic Park pic in which it’s eating a baby.
(What an awesome idea. We can Photoshop Spurs on the baby’s feet, too!)
But “bad taste” might’ve been too harsh. I dunno. PC sucks these days, and I can’t keep up with what might offend sports blogger. Hell, I post cheerleader pics and shit rains down on me… might as well keep to 4chan or something.

ATS-
To your likely surprise, I’m actually a HUGE jazz/blues fan. Not the utah kind, the great American artform kind. Literally 60% of my music is jazz/blues. Currently listening to Kenny Wayne Shephard’s ‘10 Days Out.’ Vintage old school stuff with some of the greats and KWS paying homage. Check it out, you’ll enjoy it.

Another Trade
Zach Randolph and Mardy Collins to the Clippers for Mobley and Thomas.
The Clippers have a front line of Randolph, Camby, and Kaman. And not a guard worth a damn. What are they doing in LA? At least Mobley’s contract was about to expire.
