This was a topic back when the heat played that one game with nicknames on their jerseys instead of last names, in fact I think he played against them that game too and his team did the same thing and due to all the controversy he had his name in Russian instead of using ak47
Starting line up was like PG Williams SG Ronnie Brewer SF AK47 PF Boozer C Okur Their bench was good too they had korver, Cj miles , Paul millsap and the best part about this team was they all shared the ball.
All they needed was another superstar & they would’ve been a championship team. Like Prime Dwight or Prime Melo back then. They would’ve definitely been a championship team with 1 more superstar
Bryon Phelps what’s with all the AK hype? I know he was a solid player but people act like he was a star? He averaged 12 a game throughout his career. Correct me if I’m wrong tho, this jazz team was slightly before my time
AK-47 was a problem. He was 6'10 and could move his feet to keep up with smaller players and could still be an elite shot blocker, man was a cheat code
In a way Mehmet Okur was before his time. He was a 7 footer who could shoot 3s, kinda the type that the league is in love with today. Underrated player in my opinion.
Mehmet okur is my man. His nick name was "money man" cause he was money from the arc especialy at the clutch times. He got so many game winners for his level of fame o man so fun to watch
As a hopeless Net fan...Deron Williams always leaves a sour taste in my mouth. Not only was he the start of the trade everything era for the Nets, but he just didn't want to be great. I wish people took it more seriously when Sloan retired coaching him. He simply didn't want it and the disagreement was so bad Jerry Sloan gave up lol.
Val Castillo ummmmm, no. He literally said he didn’t wanna be a star, which sucks because they gave up a bounty’s ransom for the guy. Deron wanted star treatment but not the pressure
And as it turned out Jerry Sloan was right. Deron Williams was at his best under his system. As soon as Deron went to the Nets he started declining. Listen to your coach kids
@@TS-kk9ei nahh. Bruh. He was ass when it came time to ball. All he had to do was make some plays. He couldn't even do that properly. He didn't score once in 5 games and had the ball in his hands enough to do it. Stop making excuses for Deron "out of the league" williams
As a laker fan myself, that Jazz team not only had the best looking jerseys, they had imo the best looking court in the league, id always use the Jazz in exhibition games in 2k9 cause of their team, jerseys & court. Mehmet Okur was OP
Utah Deron use to kill ankles back then. But Nets Deron, his ankles killed him. The man lost confidence. Crazy how a player can be elite one day and a scrub the next. You never know which one of these young stars is next to be great now and totally vanish tomorrow. Injuries are just inevitable.
Finally someone who remembers this team I remember when they played the spurs in the ‘07 conference finals I’ve been waiting on a vid about these Jazz teams for quite a while thank you for making this video you’re freaking awesome!!!!!!!!!!!
a big reason why they made the 07 conference final was they avoided the 1 seed by playing a 40 loss 8 seed warriors team with no depth ..they got owned by the spurs after going 7 with the rockets
Great video, people forget how good those Jazz teams were with Williams, Boozer, AK47, Okur etc. Williams was arguably the 2nd best PG behind CP3 in his prime and to me is still a HOFer even with his injuries
@Josh 0 you're right, Nash was top 2 but personally I'd rather have CP3 because of he became such a good defender but Nash was great too and those Suns teams were underrated
As a Wizards fan who has seen Rod Strickland, Mitch Richmond, Chris Webber, Gilbert Arenas, Michael Adams, Rasheed Wallace, Antwon Jamerson, Rip Hamilton, Ben Wallace, and even Michael Jordan play for Washington- could you do a video explaining that although they have the best collection of talent (not chemistry or contracts) in Washington since they won a championship in 78.
@@brandonbates9259 Trust me, I am. I remember he was good player for the Bullets, even making an All-star game in San Antonio (remember the ugly teal unis?) And Pat Riley trying to trade for him and give him a max contract. Unfortunately, most people don't know how good he was when Webber was there and sadly most just remember him as a veteran presence.
@@larrybass370 Yes those teal uniforms lol Juwan definitely had a good mid range jumper too..Hopefully fans stay educated at least on some of these players
Dope video, i am glad you through in the Jerry Sloan part of the equation cause many people dont know about glad to see a video where homework was actually done.
Williams ran Sloan out of town..Got exposed after not being able to get carried by the pick and roll since his raw numbers and spotty defense didn't contribute to wins Then left.. That's what happened
@@jaket459 Sloan probably didn't have more than 2-3 years left anyways so at least this whole thing gave him a few years of freedom to enjoy life before he started slowing down
Those were some fun times man. I was buried in the snow, couch hopping figuring out life after my Dad passed. The one thing I had that gave me joy was that Jazz squad.
I grew up a Jazz fan, and have been loyal. I was young when all of this went down. I still remember all of this. The downfall was way over paying AK. Left us no room to get other talent. Those were good days. So many good memories.
This is my team, the years that I am most attached to. Heartbreaking years, those Lakers playoff series man. There was a time Deron Williams was considered as good as CP3. It was hard for me to still love Deron after that moment with Sloan. I am glad we are just getting back to good form.
@@felixmartinez9673 I think Andy only did a Brandon Roy video i mean like a whole video of the Portland Trailblazers during him and LAs time before Dame got drafted that team always had players injured and they somehow made the playoffs most years
Man I have to give credit to the Jazz for always somehow coming back to become a consistent playoff team. They've had so many eras it's a shame they did not win a ring up to this point, but hey they have a new team to try again.
I started following the NBA around 2002-2003, my fav NBA games were NBA Live 2003, and NBA Street Vol.2, (ahh the nostalgia!) Anyway, around that time- AK47 quickly became my favorite player. Here was this lanky 6'9 Russian dude with a 7'4 wingspan, crazy athleticism, amazing defensive abilities, would steal from point guards and block centers, dunk on you, knock down a decently reliable mid range and 3 pointer, fill up the stat sheet, worked hard, and was humble. He was definitely a unique player, and I even got his jersey and modeled my own play style off him. As a result of him being my fav player, I was also a huge Jazz fan. I remember all of these events in this video, the heart breaking moments losing to the Lakers and the Spurs, the bright moments beating the Rockets and the Warriors (same series that Baron Davis dunked on AK, lol- although AK had an insane amount of blocks that series)!. The trades and acquisitions, the rough patches with Coach Sloan, etc. It was definitely a very interesting stretch of years, lots of fun memories and exciting nail biting games. Thank you for this video and bringing me down memory lane :D
Great video. I like videos about underrated, forgotten teams like this. Some people forget, for a period of time, deron Williams was the 2nd best pg in the league behind cp3. Some people say first, but defense gave Chris the nod imo.
Spot on, Thaman. Which sucked because the Jazz chose him because he was bigger, and they figured that would make him the better defender of the two. Ah well...
Great video as always man. As a Mavs fan, I hated playing against these guys. D Will, Boozer and Kirelenko were such a pain in the &^%*. Now I just miss those days.
man AK47 was one of my favorite players. I miss watching players like him. I also tried drafting him to everyone of my fantasy teams cause that man filled up all stat categories
This was when I watched NBA the most, I remember talking about how DW was more traditional and how CP3 was different with regards to their roles as PGs... Ah the good old days.
Great vid, as usual! As a Malone-Stockton fan during my teenage years, I really hoped and believed the Williams-Boozer duo could be the next to lift the Jazz. Unfortunately, besides everything you say, D-Will didn't want to stay in Salt Lake, never liked the place and wanted a bigger market...
That team with Raul López sane ( already signed with 2 ACL surgeries )had fought for finals. Very beautiful and promising team. Raul Lopez, Radja Bell, Kirilenko, Okur, Boozer ( Harpring as 6th man and Mo Williams as 2nd PG ) That team was a solid team for a decade and had fought for Finals and some title
I used to call him "Opie Legend". But he's just a rich kid who was also a superstar athlete from junior high on. Not the kind of thing that builds character. Of which, he's got, like, none.
Nah, he was in tears in front of reporters, whining he wasn't used enough and it was the year before. I think. That hurt him with his teammates and other people in the league. ALSO, that BD poster dunk just evens out the wonderful night he held Carmelo to 4-23 shooting and blocked him like, 6 times. Carmelo almost cried in the 4th quarter of that game, it was great lol.
I remember it a bit differently as a Jazz fan. The first cracks were with Carlos Boozer. He started complaining about his contract during a time when he was not only injured, but the Jazz were winning with his backup, Paul Millsap, putting up numbers. That was the 08-09 season, and the team actually faltered after he came back. Boozer ended up choosing to opt into the final year of his contract, and with Millsap already making starter money, along with several other players on large contracts, the team started to feel the crunch. Starter Ronnie Brewer was traded away to save money, which made Williams unhappy. The 2010 offseason saw the real changes - Boozer, Kyle Korver and Wesley Mathews all signed elsewhere, as the team looked to save money, though they did trade for Al Jefferson to help make up for the loss of Boozer and the injured Mehmet Okur. They also added Gordon Hayward in the draft that year, but it would be years before he would become an all-star caliber player. Despite the changes, the team was winning, until at some point a rift developed in the locker room and the team started losing. That precluded Jerry Sloan's retirement, Deron Williams being traded and Andrei Kirilenko leaving to play in Russia.
Besides Boozer and D-Will,they had a great coach in Jerry Sloan,a stretch 5 Mehmet Okur who made an all-star team. Kirilenko was one of a kind type of player and they always had 3-4 solid role players.
What happened to the Knicks after the Patrick Ewing era, would love to see this video. Don't forget to show the shot that made the garden roar, the LJ 4 point play.✌🏼
Who remembers the days when people really couldn’t decide who was better between Deron and CP3? Then Deron fell off so fast lol
Thomas Chen Then Brooklyn happened.
Yup, i remember well. Damn shame, CP3 had the intangibles, all Derron had on him was range

Man prime AK-47 was so underrated, defensive monster and so versatile, he was amazing
Second player in the 5x5 list. He did it 3 times (behind Hakeem Olajuwon´s 6 times) in his career.
He is Giannis actually
People forget how clutch Mehmet Okur was
I swear! The OG of big men shooting the 3 ball
Mehmo hit a lot of big shots when he was needed
@@edwilliams5430 Mehmet Okur started the stretch 4 era?
James Bartee stretch 5! He was a center

how about prime kirilenko on the finals teams instead of bryon russell? I'd bet he wouldn't be slipping and sliding guarding jordan, lol
If he had a consistent jumper, he'd be a legend.
Bryon Phelps what’s with all the AK hype? I know he was a solid player but people act like he was a star? He averaged 12 a game throughout his career. Correct me if I’m wrong tho, this jazz team was slightly before my time

In a way Mehmet Okur was before his time. He was a 7 footer who could shoot 3s, kinda the type that the league is in love with today. Underrated player in my opinion.
funny how okur was on the 03 and 04 pistons and was more of a heavy slow bruiser back then...he was muscle down low..he got in shape in utah
Okur a few nights ago was at a Jazz game talking to media and said if he played in today's league he'd average 25+ 😂

He was a really good player.
