Welcome to the Utah Jazz press Conference. Last season we knew was going to be a tuff one to sit through. We were in full rebuild mode and knew it. We were encourage by the play of our rookie pg Rubio. In rookie year he was able to pass the ball very well. We are excited to see him grow in other areas like his defense.

This offseason we continued our rebuild. We won the luck of the lotto gods and received the #1 pick. With that pick we selected SF Paul George. We are very excited to get a shooter for Rubio the pass the ball too. Not only are we excited for his shooting but also his defense potential. Like Rubio they are both only 20 and have time to grow together.

After the Draft we headed in to Training camp. We are very pleased with the results. Second year Jazz player C.J. Miles had a very good camp. We saw the potential he had and glad to see it come through. Mr. Chandler also had a very good camp. We are excited that our young players are growing together.


Even though we are very excited about we are still aware of our needs. We are still in rebuild mode. We still need a few more players to complete our team. We are in the market for young Power forwards and Centers. We are taking our time to complete this team. We are looking at all the options and will try out best to make the right decisions to complete our team. The floor is now open for questions.

ANOTHER number one pick. Are you the luckiest gm in the league? Yes. Do you do the least with the most? Yes. Will you ever break through and actually be considered a gm to be feared? Not likely. Will you give yourself to a darker being, a darker side? And allow that being to control your every move and train you in the ways? Possibly.

He is enjoying the weather. He likes relaxing in his new home on the mountain on his days off. He is also enjoying getting to know Rubio. They are spending time together to get use to how each other plays to make the best on the court.

True we have not done the best with some players we have had in the past. We feel we have learned form our mistakes and will try out best not to follow the past trends. Time will tell and hopefully one day we will be feared.

Random Reporter: You've quickly assembled one of the league's best wing rotations. How do you plan to spread the minutes around, or will someone be on the block soon?

Our goal is to start our young players. We are in favor of our youth to gel and see what we have for the future. Depending on how they play will determine if someone goes on the block

GWR: Crunch time. Five seconds left, fourth quarter, down by one and you have the ball. Who's it going to? Where is your offensive firepower coming from this season?

Right now it will be Miles but looking for George to be the future.
