Update: Jazz guard Deron Williams stirred things up a bit when he said this season that he hates the Lakers. “They’re good,” Williams told the Salt Lake Tribune. “I hate them because they win all the time. They’re a tough team. We definitely talk about it. It’s not a secret. We hate the Lakers.” The Jazz is in first place in the tough Northwest Division that also has Oklahoma City, Denver and Portland.
