Folks, I think after seeing this guy in a Jazz uniform for over a year, I think it's safe to describe Jefferson as Fool's Gold.
Like Monta Ellis, Tracy McGrady, and Carlos Boozer, this guy puts up attractive numbers, but hurts his team at least as much as helps.
He never boxes out, which leads to the opposing team getting more scoring opportunities and drawing more fouls (since it puts Al and other Jazz players into bad positions).
He's a complete black hole which destroys any offensive flow we might have.
His offensive game sucks. Yes, he does have that ONE spin move, which can be effective. Otherwise, his offensive game revolves around a stupid shotput shot (which never goes in) and his jumper (which almost never goes in). He's just not effective enough for a winning team.
His defense, is just terrible.
Intangibles and leadership, or lack thereof.
Now, he's going to lead to bad chemistry. Millsap isn't stupid... Neither are some of the other players.... People are becoming wise to "Big Al's" suckness. And having (better) players benched in favor of Al's "cool numbers but many losses" is going to go a long way to destroying chemistry.
Folks, there's a reason why Big Al has never been to the playoffs. Lets not make the same mistake in believing in this guy. Lets trade him ASAP for a shooter and/or draft picks. Go forward with Favors, Kanter, Millsap, and Evans.
