Dang Okur's still going to be with the Jazz the rest of the year

 

[Gyp Rosetti]

Can he please just retire at the end of the year? Seriously.

 

[VINYLONE]

Poor guy. But the writing is on the wall.

Okur, these are all signs that you just need to call it good and walk away.

 

[SojoDave]

So much for Memo coming back to strengthen our playoff run...Come on KOC, pull the trigger on a trade!

And give up nearly $11 million? Yeah I wouldn't either.

And give up nearly $11 million? Yeah I wouldn't either.

Sounds selfish to me and as if he doesn't truly care about the team.

Hearing about any NBA player who would give up that type of money to help their team is pretty much unheard of.

I'm kidding of course.

Though it would make my week.

In the NBA maybe. But baseball had a guy who did just last month.
