Great win by my Jazz against the Pacers. We took a big step in that direction Monday night with a hard fought 102-91 victory over the Indiana Pacers, who arguably have been the NBA's best team during this early part of the season.

John Stockton led the way with 22 points and 10 assists while playing a masterful floor game that kept the quick, youthful, and talented Pacers at bay. Calbert Cheaney also shut Reggie Miller down, holding him to 0 points.. No doubt about it, the Pacers are the quickest and most talented team my Jazz have faced so far this year. But the Jazz proved to be the better team, at least last night.

The Jazz are playing as good as anyone right now and honestly, I haven't seen them play this good since 2000. Harpring is playing better then Marshall ever did and Jackson may be the best back-up point guard in the league. Greg Ostertag is playing with newfound motivation and hussle.

I'm just hoping we can continue it in our next game against the Lakers.
