What's new

No talk about Boozer / Lee

Lee is better defensively than we give him credit for. No, he's not a shot blocker. But he will use his body to get in front of people. I watched a lot of Knicks games the last 2 months of the season (cheering for them to lose, of course). Lee gave 100% every game.

I'm not suggesting he comes in as Millsap's backup, PKM. What I was saying is he could start at the 5, then slide over to the 4 when Millsap goes out.

I just don't see Greg taking on that kind of salary, though. Not unless the Jazz can dump AK first.

Boozer isn't even a POWER forward, he's softer than Wonderbread. At least Lee can post up and use his size against people.
 
Please no, I like Lee, but the Boozer/Millsap situation has already shown us you cant get away with playing 2 PF's against the really good teams.
 
If they sign Fez and Matthews. Plus fill in the other roster spots needed to fill the team the Jazz well likely be right about 2 million under the tax threshold. Signing Lee for 10-12 million puts them that far over the tax. Plus Lee with Millap is about the same as Boozer with Millsap on the defensive end. I don't think that is a good thing. But at least we would be getting an all star player back for Boozer. Its something.
 
Ford was one of the few predicting Utah might take Hayward, he earned some credibility back with me for that. Not one person on this forum called him over Babbitt that except Honz.
I dont like Lee at center, but at least this is getting some decent value back for Boozer. Lee has talent and is the main reason the Jazz ended up with the 9th pick instead of a top 3.
So really we should hate his guts.
