Show 4 The Magna TlmesWest Valley News, Thursday, February 10, 2000 Do not worry about adverse criticism. Forge ahead like the cigarette." Book of Hag If you don't have anything nice to say about anyone, come sit next to me. know any idiot can criticize. That's why I'm so good at it. What's wrong with the Jazz7 Read I on First of all they can not defend any one John Stockton can't defend against the premier point guards in the league. Namely Gary Payton, Jason Kidd, Mike Bibby, and Damon Stoudamire, not to mention Iverson and Brandon, and Marbury. The Jazz have lost six in a row. Will they even come back? Is life worth living7 When will they stop playing like the B.YU offensive line7 It's hard to go to work. The bottom is out of the universe. The Jazz simply cannot defend the center position , They have encompassed land andee to get three centers. All of them put together would not tp ate on real one. Why can't we get k center? When will Dame fortune smile on us? Perhaps we can get a hockey ' center7 Polynce can foul. Gilliam can shoot and Ostertag Can jog. If we played them all at once, the floor would tilt. The size is there. I don't think Ostertag even likes basketball He only likes the end of practice and pay day. Will he change? Never. How do you change personality? People say, "If he'd just play a little", not gonna do it; to much trouble. The pays the same whether he hustles or not. Malone is the franchise. Mr. Consistency. Take him away, and you only have Larry Miller left. The Laydens have all jumped ship and headed off to greener pastures. Some folks lay the blame at the feet of Jerry Sloan. Why doesn't he do this or that7 Why doesn't he make something out of nothing? You cannot make Olden Polynce into Kevin Gamct John Stockton continues to amaze the world. He goes on infinitum. If we playing well-A- d lose him, the world may come to an end, or the Olympics may be canceled Hang on John. We need you. The second unit (the bench players) have been panned by certain media types for not getting the job done. I agree they haven't set the world on fire, Gilliam has helped sometimes. I predict that the Jazz win fifty games; make the playoffs, and lose in the 2nd round. I hope I'm wrong. I hope I'm wrong. I love the Jazz, except when they lose. SIMONS SAYS: I'd like to get the i.R.S. after Ostertag maybe hed run a little faster. -- SIMONS SAYS: It only takes three Jazz fans to give you four opinions. SIMONS SAYS: Do not worry too much about what I say. Remember, opinion can travel all around the world without a Second Quarter Dooms Granger Vs.
