I think the key word is "best team" and not "best players"! The Jazz are very similar to the Houston Rockets a few years ago & recently the Spurs where the focus is on team play and not the flash of a having a superstar on your team. Compared to Kobe or Iverson, Tim Duncan lives a quiet existence. The Jazz are very similar & it's always been like that for them (even when they had Malone & Stockton!). Unfortunately, television & the public are driven by flashy dunks & high publicity. Sloan & the Jazz aren't about that! Boozer is about the closest they have to a "superstar". Their future looks good as Deron Williams is an All-Star level player already & will only get better. The only issues for the Jazz could revolve around health as Kirilenko seems to be a fraction of the player he was last year & with Boozer's broken leg still healing; they might continue to struggle as they have since their great November when they were13-4.

first off i don't think the jazz are one ot the best teams they might be an good team but to answer your question it comes down to one word....ratings. now would you rather watch a game featuring the dallas mavericks, phoenix suns, detroit pistons, miami heat or the utah jazz. 9 times out of 10 the answer would not be the jazz..doesn't tnt or is it espn ..i don't know but one of them is required to show every team on anational broadcast at least once.

it depends on where u r from, im sure they get plenty of tv time in Utah. Only big city teams like the Pistons and Cavaliers get a lot of tv time

They are in a small market so they don't get that much exposure let me tell u as a Piston fan they spanked us four times in a row so they definitely have game.

Love NBA hoops but couldn't tell you their starting five. No superstars.

Because they're in Utah and no one cares.
