    The Jazz have discussed signing a big man to replace Curtis Borchardt while his broken wrist heals, coach Jerry Sloan said Friday, but it is unlikely that they will do so.
    "If you bring a guy in, a lot of times you can't play them for two weeks until they know what they're doing," Sloan said. "We thought we were getting close to [Michael] Ruffin coming back."
    Besides, Sloan said, "Who's available? That's the next question."

    This should give Ben Handlogten minutes, which I'm unsure about. He's had some good games, but he's had some bad ones and is a very old rookie. Also if you didn't know, Andrei Kirilenko has got rid of the mohawk :thumbsup:
