The Jazz hope to bring back the Rocky Mountain Revue next summer.

"We're going to try like heck to have the Revue back next year," general manager Kevin O'Connor said. "We think it's really good for our organization and our fans.

"I think in the middle of July, without pro football and Major League Baseball, that it gives our fans an opportunity to really come out and see the players."

The Jazz remain "unequivocally" opposed to going to Las Vegas, according to O'Connor, both out of frustration at their own league's demise and the belief that the environment along the Strip is the wrong introduction for players entering the NBA.

"The things that I've heard of and things that have happened, guys being in the casinos with their practice stuff on or their game stuff on," Sloan said. "I don't know, is that something you want to accomplish with young guys?"
