What difference does it make if Boozer is trying to 'lure' players to Chicago or not. It's up to the Jazz to make a move or sit on their hands, and they seem (at the moment) content to do nothing. Korver didn't 'follow' Boozer to Chicago... as I've posted already elsewhere, Korver was pretty...

Maybe, maybe not... either way, I really don't think Korver 'followed' Boozer to Chicago... they made him an offer, and he had to sign somewhere. Korver was pretty clear at the end of the season that he wanted to stay here in Utah, and I believe, would have stayed for less money than the...

Maybe this will set a trend.... NBA players willing to play for nothing(; I can't believe how big of a deal all these 'analysts' are making of the fact that these players took LESS MONEY!!!! To hear them talk, you'd think these guys will be starving while they go for their championships...

Siler has a tweet about it... 'league source' being the source... RT @blazerbanter: #Blazers scheduled to meet with #Jazz's Matthews, league source says.

I wouldn't really call that a 'double-cross'. Sounds more like a lack of courtesy.... agent probably could have given them a quick call to let them know Boozer would be accepting another offer.

Yep, pretty sure it is fake... especially after seeing replies to a Jerry Sloan account... LOL

Unless it is fake... Siler posted one of the Boozer tweets though. Looks like a new account. https://twitter.com/BoozerTheBull

Is Boozer actually showing some DEFENSE???? @BlockU I sent the Rockets home packing and gave Jazz fans the ability to mock that lobster eye McGrady for 2 full years. #RESPECT @BlockU you mean the game I had 20 rebounds? or when I had 30 & 13? or was it when I had 34 & 12.

Boozer tweet? @BlockU @tribjazz nobody remembers that I led #Jazz to WCF in 07. 35 pts 14 reb in game 7 vs. HOU. averaged 24-12 those playoffs.

Yeah, I kind of figured that out after I found the info in the link. Prior to that I just thought I'd heard something about official signings not being able to take place after July 7th. Thanks!

Seems there is a moratorium period in which teams may hold negotiations but cannot sign contracts.... https://www.nba.com/news/july_fa_moratorium.html

This was my thinking... but I had wondered about the specifics when it comes to the rules of restricted free agency, and if it was even possible for the Jazz to try and negotiate once an offer sheet is received. They probably have made him an offer (just like they must have with Millsap and...

Isn't there a week or so, between the time FA opens, to the time teams can sign players from other teams? Maybe that is what the article was suggesting, that the Jazz could try to make a deal before a team could make an official offer.

Well, I guess that answers my question. Matthews can wait to see what type of offers he gets, and then (if he wants) still negotiate something with the Jazz. Seems kind of strange though... I don't remember much talk of negotiating when Miles and Millsap signed their offer sheets. I do...

Well, this is all fine and good... but doesn't answer my question. My question is if the whole idea of a 'home town discount' is a moot point now. My question is if the Jazz can even negotiate with Wes at this point, or if their qualifying offer stands unless/until he signs an offer sheet...

Well, this is what I'm unsure of. Of course he doesn't HAVE to sign anything... but with the Jazz electing to make a qualifying offer in order to make Wes a restricted FA, can they even make another offer to him, separate from matching an offer from another team? Or are we at a point where...

Hmmm... just curious, but isn't the time passed for this? I mean, is it true or no that the Jazz could have made an offer BEFORE the FA period started? Now that we are in the FA period, with Wes being a restricted free Agent, and the Jazz opting to let the market set his value, they either...

This.

Ahhh... that explains it!:rolleyes:
