Al Jefferson to Utah? ...Mark Stein's Twitter reports

[RocStar]

Boozer is so much better than Jefferson that it's not even funny. They're effectively talking about trading Boozer for Jefferson. The Jazz desperately need a potent offensive threat that's a big, but to take on a dude with a permanent knee/achilles issue and being dumped by THE ****ING TIMBERWOLVES is a screaming red-flag, forgetting that the Jazz likely will be losing other assets as well.

The Jazz are run by ****ing idiots.

What's the alternative? Having a slowed Okur,KK2 and Fes stink up the court. Don't think of Jefferson replacing Boozer, that's what Milsap is being paid handsomely to do. This is a definite upgrade to the C position and will make up for KOC foolishly extending Okur last season.

Why didn't we just draft him over k-hump in the first place

what about AK for Jefferson. It would work if the Jazz sent about 100k with him. Saves the Jazz 2-3M and they would still have the TPE....

Archie: You owe the OP a big phat apology!

Could be Brewer as well.

Shut the **** up. Don't ever scare me like that again.

I believe this is called desperation.

No, desperation is matching Matthews' offer.

Why the hell would the Lakers want Gasol. I mean, if a ****** team like the grizzlies are dumping, he MUST be horrible.

Ignoring the rest of my post makes you look like a stupid ****.

No way Wolves said that they don't want to take Salaries back. And they want draft picks.

If Cuban is already offering Damp, why do they do that? They wind up taking a 5 million dollar Cap hit this year.

Have you seen Big Al play? His skill set is virtually 180 degrees from what is required of a PF in Utah's system.

Solid move for the Jazz, as long as Greg isn't talking about Brewer instead.

Al will put up career numbers in a Jazz uniform, if not only because of the Jazz system.

I like his size and length too. We could definitely play him alongside Sap, especially against smaller teams.

Much like David Lee, being forced to play out of position doesn't make you a player of that position. Jefferson is not a C and is a terrible defender. He's everything everyone hates about Boozer but with a worse injury history and a uni-dimensional offensive game.
