    San Antonio is alot tougher than I had imagined. Both defensively and offensively. I don't think it will be a happy ending for Utah unfortunately.

    SAS is the almost most experianced team in the NBA play off.. alonside the Detroit Pistons...

    There for ,its very hard to match up this kind of well balanced and experianced team.

    -There is still hope. dont give up:)

    Mehmet Okur should push forward to score 3 points shoots and should push to make double double.

    First two game..there were ghost Mehmet Okur..10 point each game..6 ribaund...
    those are the not what we know about his performances...

    Mehmet Okur is the key point for game 3-4.
    if he Hot. Utah will drive crazy.

    I believe and hope that Mehmet Okur will lead the team alonside Boozer_Williams_Krilenko.

    @
    Fisher were ghost too.
    he should add his experiance in this match up.
    he is the only one in this team that have more experianced player.

    Duncan were the main point for SAS outstanding 2-0 lead vs Jazz.
    He scored,he ribaunded, he blocked..

    He is the one of the top star in the NBA

    Sloan should find the way to make him less active.


    Good luck Jazz!

    Game 3:
    Utah 109, San Antonio 83

    Okur: 21 minutes, 0-3 FG, 4 rebounds, 5 personal fouls

    Mehmet Okur did not play very long in Game 3. He was also in foul trouble so he was playing very aggressively. However, his team won the game, so all is well.

    San Antonio leads the series 2-1.

    Game 4 is on Monday...

    Finalyy Jazz start to win.

    Mehmet Okur did not play very ofansive game...
    I gues thats because of coach desicion..pressure agains to Duncan.
    Okur did very well. He were the nightmare of the Duncan at the game 3.
    He defens well .
    Stil balls. blocks. over all; played very agressive vs Duncan.
    That make Duncan less effect in ofansive way.
    Okur push Duncan to make ofansive foul too.
    One of the key point of the game 3 winning was the Okur vs Duncan match up.

    Williams,Boozer played an amazing game at ofansively.
    Bench players did very well too.
    There was a huge Jazz at the second half of the game.


    I believe and hope, Jazz_Mehmet Okur will continue same way.

    Good luck

    Okur: 24 minutes, 3-8 FG, 0-2 3PT, 2-3 FT, 8 points

    San Antonio was dominant all throughout the series but Utah had a good run. That's it for this season. Now we have to wait until next season to see how Mehmet Okur will do...

    Last season in NBA , there was a young Turkish star ; Ersan Ilyasova played at M Bucks.

    This season he sign for Barcelona.


    And at NBA there is a Utah Jazz champion player Mehmet Okur;)
    He won the championship title with Detroit ...
    now he plays for Utah Jazz.

    Hidayet and Mehmet are my favorite player alonside Duncan,Parker,Kobe,Shaq.
