One of the few things you can write in cement in the ever changing NBA is that the Utah Jazz will make the playoffs. When you make the playoffs 24 of 27 seasons its expected of you. For all those trips though the Jazz have yet to win an NBA title. This summer the Jazz swapped scoring power forwards when Carlos Boozer bolted for the Windy City and then Minnesota gave them Al Jefferson for literally nothing. The only other moves were Kyle Korver and Wesley Matthews leaving and Raja Bell , Francisco Elson, and Earl Watson coming in. The starting 5 will consist of Jefferson, Mehmet Okur, Andrei Kirlenko, Raja Bell, and All Star Deron Williams. The bench will be led by Paul Millsap , Earl Watson, CJ Miles, Rookie Gordon Hayward, and Francisco Elson. Jerry Sloan is in his 23rd season with the team and is always one of the best coaches in the league. The Jazz will continue to be one of the perennial powers out west and are absolutely a threat to the Lakers reign out west.
