While I'm sure it will be very difficult, these kinds of deals do happen. However, even if we can't get one of those two assets back, I would advocate dumping him or offering him the MLE as a max for 2 or 3 years.

I was looking at AK's stats and I noticed something interesting. Over the course of his career has played in 617 of the available 738 games. That is 83%. Boozer in contrast has played in 77% of the games of his career and people classify Booze as soft. My belief is that AK is too...

Wes sounds bummed. He would have been a fool not to test the market. If the Jazz would have offered him a low ball offer like some of you are saying then the Blazers come in and offer him nearly double he would have been offended and you all would have called the Jazz cheap SOB's. The way...

I still have a feeling they bring Brewer back and that AK is gone.

If I was KOC, right now, I'd be sitting in my office thinking: BOOM BITCHES!!!!

Best of luck Wes!!!

Guess who Raja's career 3 point percentage is exactly the same as? You guessed it, KK. Both career 41% from the 3. Bell is a much better defender, can handle the ball better, knows this system, Sloan loved him last time. If Bell has anything left in the tank this is a huge signing. 3...

I agree, I don't see any possible way we are keeping Matthews that doesn't involve moving AK. That being said, at the price the Blazers are taking him at, I don't want him at all. Overpaying role players is the kiss of death.

Here is a question, can Harrington guard Kobe? LeBron? D-Wade? If he can't then he isn't the right guy for us.

Koufus just always seemed overmatched and too slow. If he makes progress he could be a career back up but I imagine he is most likely going to be in Europe after his first contract.

I have a buddy in Minny and was teasing him today if he wanted a bag of chips to make himself feel better about us stealing Jefferson from them. Now I feel like I owe him dinner...

Thanks Bro!

It's been an interesting 24 hours or so. KOC has gone from being the biggest ****** in the world in some fan's eyes to a genius in others eyes. I'm definately in the stoked to have Jefferson, however, I have to say I was never in panic mode this summer. I think if you looked at Boozer, KK...

Kenwood, first of all, it's highly doubtful the Jazz gave up everything for Al. Second of all, the reason why the Jazz are in a situation where their hands are tied comes down to AK. Dude has a max contract but is putting up numbers that justify a contract about half of what he has. Because...

I have no clue how we get him, but how about O.J. Mayo?

Matthews is not the difference in us contending for a championship or not. We need a shooting guard that can put up 18-20 ppg and shoot a good percentage while doing it and is big enough and quick enough to defend the Kobes of the world. Matthews is a decent defender and a great story, but he...

Brewer doesn't fill a need for us. He doesn't shoot well. No one knows how he is doing after his injury, his biggest asset was his athletic ability and that may be hampered after the injury. Plus we are shooting our wad on Jefferson. If we want to upgrade this roster if Jefferson goes down...

If you start Sap and Jefferson you can't start AK. In fact as much as that combo might work on defense we would get killed by zone's. Damn Korver would be nice to have..........Also, Brewer is not an answer for us and Matthews is too expensive now. Have to trade AK for someone who can shoot...

Agreed, Matthews is done as a Jazz player. I'm shocked at how much the Blazers are paying him.

I'm not quite ready to put my faith in Hayward. At best, he will need a couple of years to come into his own. This year is the year that Utah can make a splash with AK's contract coming off the books. If we could get a stud shooting guard then assuming Memo is able to come back this team...
