Hornacek compares old Jazz with the new
Posted: May 5, 2008

Jeff Hornacek played with -- starred with -- John Stockton and Karl Malone.
As a Jazz consultant, Hornacek is up close and personal with Deron Williams
and Carlos Boozer. In his own words, he describes' the Jazz past vs. present:

The difference from last year to this year -- a huge difference -- is in
Deron's decision making. When to shoot it, when to pass it. Jerry's giving
him a lot of leeway this year as far as letting him call his own offense.

John was great at distributing the ball; he always knew when Karl was going
to be open just for that split second. Deron and Carlos are on that same
page, running that pick-and-roll and knowing where that little opening is
to make that pass.

I think John was more of a scrapper than Deron. He was stronger than he
looked. He grabbed, he threw elbows. Deron's more able to bump guys off him
just through his sheer size. You can't cut him off; he just rides you out of
the way until he gets where he wants.

I don't know if it's possible for Carlos to be as strong as Karl. I remember
when I first got here, I got knocked down in a game. Karl pulled me up with
his finger. I thought, "Holy crap, this guy is strong." But Carlos and Karl
are similar in that they have such great body control. When they do roll down
the lane, you don't see them get called for a lot of charges. They have the
ability to maneuver around guys.

When we were playing, John, Karl and I would be in the back room when the
other guys had the music going in the locker room. When Deron and Carlos come
to play a game, they're focused like we were. The preparedness is very
similar. They are ultimate professionals.
