Hello Jazz fans! Just when you think you’re gonna have time to write that weekly column, you wake up and realize it’s A) February and B) 3 weeks later: Rip Van Winkle style.
So, here I am at All-Star Weekend getting ready to talk to Jeremy Evans about the dunk contest… what better time to drop in another LindList? Here are last week(ish)’s best tweets from the Jazz community:
10: @edwin_nba - The trade deadline is approaching, and the Jazz are in the thick of trade buzz. The team’s bigs are especially ripe for discussion, and although I don’t always disagree with trading a piece away (in theory), it’s plays like this one in Washington that make me think twice.
Millsap has been thinking about taking that charge since yesterday #WASatUTA — Edwin L (@edwin_nba) January 24, 2013
9: @SaltCityHoops – Jazz fans KNOW that Burks can do anything. ANYTHING, so I think we’re all more than a little shocked when he misses a couple gimmee’s from the line.
Alec Burks requires a higher degree of difficulty for his shots. Free throws? No. Contested fallaway baseline floater? Yes. #OKCatUTA — Spencer Ryan Hall (@saltcityhoops) February 13, 2013
8: @jimborudding: One hashtag, so many tweets: #dunkidea

7: @LostTacoVendor – Whenever I think the broadcast crew can’t get more nonsensical…
Big Al gets whacked right in the face. Bolerjack informs us he will “walk it off.”#OKCatUTA — LostTacoVendor (@LostTacoVendor) February 13, 2013
6: @Enes_Kanter – Love is in the air, sweeties.
Pimp Daddy wants to say Happy Valentine’s day to all my sweeties. I just LOVE you all <3 twitter.com/Enes_Kanter/st… — Enes Kanter (@Enes_Kanter) February 14, 2013
5: @My_Lo - Presented with no comment. Just a vigorous nod of the head.
Earl Watson forgot the most important rule: EARL WATSON IS NEVER EVER ALLOWED TO SHOOT THE BALL. — Mychal Lowman (@My_Lo) January 26, 2013
4: @JaromMoore – A mention of church ball, and Durant in a post is SURE to guarantee pageviews in Utah, right? RIGHT?!
#thesportsbeat I’d rather shoot like Durant, it’s easier on the knees and I could show it off during church ball. — Jarom Moore (@jarommoore) February 15, 2013
3: @5kl – What’s the #lindlist without a mention of Gordon’s tan (or lack thereof)?
Do you realize what the Arizona sun would do to Hayward? RT @kslshep: Suns showing interest in Jefferson and Haywardazcentral.com/sports/suns/ar… — Kris (@5kl) February 11, 2013
2: @djjazzyjody – I’m not 100% what Jody is saying here… but I am 100% sure I like it.
This is like when my wife reminds me: “Don’t forget, it’s garbage day!” Right? RT @lakerfanatics: Good morning @lakers fans, it’s game day!

1: @JazzHype – Jerry Sloan stories + Fesenko = Magic.
When my cousin (wearing a Fesenko jersey) asked for a picture with Jerry, his tongue-in-cheek(ish) response was “not in that f***ing shirt.” — Justin Davies (@jazzhype) January 24, 2013
Follow Jeff on Twitter! Especially this weekend where you’ll get more of this:
