The Utah Jazz, a team they came over to Salt Lake City, Utah in 1979 from the Big Easy (New Orleans) has been plying their National Basketball Association goods since 1974 back in that Louisiana city. And though the nickname Jazz Might not normally be associated with the city like Salt Lake, it somehow seems very appropriate, given how hot the team can be. Salt Lake City has seen the likes of future Hall of Famers John Stockton and Karl Malone, widely considered two of the greatest NBA players of all time. The Jazz have also made the postseason on numerous occasions, including the NBA finals, selling a ton of Utah Jazz tickets over the years.

About Utah Jazz
While it is true that the team's tenure down in New Orleans wasn't really too much to write home about, it's basketball playing glory days would soon evidence themselves once they had picked up stakes and moved on to the beautiful Salt Lake City area. The team seemed almost immediately rejuvenated by the move in 1979, eventually selling a ton of Utah Jazz tickets to an eager, ready and willing fan base. That fan base would be attracted by a change in marketing tactics over the years plus a continually improving on court presence.
The 1984 NBA draft would prove to be fatal for the Utah Jazz, in that they managed to scoop up a guard out of Gonzaga named John Stockton. The following season, they again struck gold, drafting a forward out of Louisiana Tech named Karl Malone. On court, they were making it into the playoffs both seasons and selling increasing numbers of Utah Jazz tickets. Soon enough, Stockton and Malone he came bona fide superstars and the team continued to develop an on court quality style of play.
1989 would be a signal year, and one in which Coach Jerry Sloan would guide the team to a 51 game winning record, taking their then-division, the Midwest. Playoff appearances had become the norm. The Utah Jazz would continue the 1990s in much the same fashion they had the latter part of the 1980s, making playoff appearances and selling large numbers of Utah Jazz tickets. In 1992, they had a breakthrough and made the conference finals for the first time. 50-plus game winning seasons also became the norm.
They'd once again make it to the conference finals in 1994, losing to the eventual NBA champ Houston Rockets. The 1990s soon enough became synonymous with the trips into the playoffs for the Utah club, and they would once again head to the finals for several years, giving the Michael Jordan-led Chicago Bulls all they could handle in the 1998 finals before finally going down to defeat in six games. Stockton and Malone were still a strong presence, as were Ron Harper and Howard Eisley. Utah Jazz tickets became the thing to have in Salt Lake City.
The years between the final retirement of both Stockton and Malone and the new era of play ushered in by star players Carlos Boozer and to Ron Williams, along with contributions by quality basketball players like Mehmet Okur and Kyle Korver, have been mostly a series of gradually improving play with only a short drop off for an abbreviated period of rebuilding, though fans continue to reward their team by buying up large quantities of Utah Jazz tickets. The ballclub went to the conference finals in 2007 and had made the playoffs every year since.
For 2010, the season holds great hope and promise of a deep run into the postseason on the backs, legs and strong shooting of Boozer, Mehmet Okur and to Deron Williams. Jerry Sloan, leading the team from the bench, promises stellar play and a can-do attitude every night of every game of the season, which is sure to give fans all the reason they need to run out and buy Utah Jazz tickets.
