Ask any Utah Jazz fan when the glory days of the franchise were and they’ll almost undoubtedly bring up the John Stockton and Karl Malone era which saw Utah qualify for two straight NBA Finals. Those were certainly some of the best years to be a Jazz fan, but that doesn’t mean that the franchise has had a lack of entertaining teams since then.
Until just this past season, the most successful Jazz teams since those glory days came with Deron Williams running the point in Salt Lake City. Although Utah was never a powerhouse, per se, they had several good runs during those years.
