    Have never been a big fan of the Jazz myself, but they have a solid squad right now and have been solid for a long time. It is fairly impressive, because you would think that a number of players would rather do almost anything other than play in Utah, despite how enthusiastic their fans are. I had a good friend who was Mormon and was a big Jazz/Karl Malone fan, so I guess when I saw their forum was empty, I am doing this in his honor. With that being said, and this is something I want to do for every team, I am going to list my all-time Jazz team. This just includes guys who actually played well for the Jazz, not guys who just went there for a year or two at the end of their run. So, without further ado:

    C Thurl Bailey
    PF Karl Malone
    SF Adrian Dantley
    SG Pete Maravich
    PG John Stockton
    PF Carlos Boozer
    PG Deron Williams
    SG Darrell Griffith
    SF Jeff Malone
    C Mehmet Okur
    SG Jeff Hornacek
    SF Andrei Kirilenko

    I would say this is a team Jazz fans would most likely find acceptable. Shout out any ommisions, I think Mark Eaton and most definitely Greg Ostertag made strong cases as to being on the roster (I am of course kidding about Ostertag).

    Like you said Mark Eaton and maybe Big Dog Antoine Carr. Bryon Russell also played 10 years with us.

    Pretty good list but Mark Eaton should most definitely be on the list. NBA defensive player of the year twice and the Jazz rightfully so retired his number.

    Strong team eaton at center I think we could havea dominate team. Utah had one losing season in the last 20 years. It produced a trade up for DWilliams!
