The jazz could be the most complete team in the western conference right now. They have beaten the suns 3 times and have done well against most of the powers in the west. They have a very deep bench and a very versatile starting lineup. Is this the year jerry sloan and the jazz finally overcome what stockton and malone couldn't accomplish? Will they win a championship?

Yes, I think that they definently will. They play together as a team extremely well. Obviously the Mavs are really good, but I think that they cn beat them. Although I am often confused as to what Sloan is doing sometimes, it is working and they keep winning, and I don't see that stopping.

No, they aren't going to win it. They'll most likely make it to the second round, but do you seriously think they could beat the Mavericks, Spurs and Suns in the playoffs. So they have beaten the Spurs twice, suns 3 times, and mavs once, but it is something else to beat these more experienced teams in the postseason. Also, they played the Suns when they were in a rough period and have been lucky to face them then. First 2 meetings (Suns start 3-6) and 3rd time(injuries hurting them). That 1 win over Mavs was when they lost 3 of 5, but lost next time to them. They get blown out in Staples Center, Toyota Center, and AT&T Center. I want to see them perform better on the road (when a team is not off to a slow start or undermanned because of injuries or going through a rough period).

They're a great team and they obviously will make the playoffs and win their division. However they won't win the west. Beating the Suns, Spurs, and Mavs in the regular season is one thing but to beat them in the playoffs when they have more experience than you is a totally different story.

No, not unless Andrei Kirilenko starts playing like...Andrei Kirilenko and Boozer, Okur or Deron don't choke in the spotlight.I really want the Jazz to do well but in a conference with the Spurs, Suns, Mavericks and Lakers its gonna be tough.

This has definitly been the year for the Jazz. But, the challenge will be in the playoffs. I don't think they will win the championship, but they will probably make it to the second round of the playoffs and lose to Phoenix.

No. They will run into a wall in the second round by the name of Phoenix, San Antonio, or Dallas.

They're good, but they are in a tough conference, and they are a bit young. Maybe in 1-3 years it'll be their time, but I just don't see it this year..
