guys this is not a "we lost" thread. The Portland game just validates my point; D-Will is too good for this team. Deron has hinted on leaving multiple times in the past. No ring, no Deron. As much as that sucks.

That's why he signed a three year deal!

Boozer takes the heat for his remark, D-Will gets no heat for his. I personally see Deron's as worse. D-Will threatened to leave, Boozer just wanted more money, like any sane person.
 
I've never been a fan of these topics but this season it's different. D-Will has to do a lot more offensively WITH the basketball than he has in years past, and if you've followed his career closely, you know he'd rather dish it out than put it in. That's what happens when you choose not to bring back an elite offensive threat.

If that's his attitude then he'll never be one of the real elites in this league. They put it on their shoulders constantly when they have to. I don't think that's his attitude though. I"ve seen many games from him in many years where he was relishing being the man out there.

He's too good for the team he's the catalyst for?

Who knows, maybe he will Lebron out and try to go to a loaded team. I've never got that vibe from him really, but it could happen. But this team is 21-10, which as of now is tied with the Lakers for the 5th best record in the league. It's not like the Jazz are just epically struggling out there.

What kills me is that this stuff always gets posted after a disappointing loss. The NBA season is 82 games long. These losses happen. Dallas lost to Toronto, at home, tonight. The Lakers lost to the Bucks at home a week ago. The Heat lost to an awful team who's star point guard is totally going to leave it's awful team after a former backup PF hits 3 three pointers in the final minute!

Dude, D-Will has stated in interviews before that he would rather get his teammates involved. When we've had injuries you see him talk about how he has had to step up and score more, then he says he'd rather get other scoring. I'll try to find you a reference tomorrow, but it's late now.

You don't need to, I remember him saying that. But if you're going to be elite in this league you will have to step up your game yourself at certain points, and even carry a team on your shoulders if things aren't going well. One of my biggest complaints about Stockton was that he didn't do it as often as he should of. Deron seems to be game for those opportunities when they present themselves.

It was a 3 year EXTENSION with a 4th year option. Next time read the CBA rules before sounding your stupidity alarm. Contracts are max 5 years for FA's, 6 for bird rights.

I'll give you credit for getting as tiring as you like to do.
