Boom Tho!

Boom Tho is a character and has a college degree. His coach in the DLeague former Jazzman Jay Humphries loves him. He put up some sick numbers in the DLeague playoffs. Davidson played for Idaho a couple of years ago and got a contract from Golden State. Augustine is a college teammate of DWills and played well last year in Orlando. I will be interested to see how Gaines, Jeffers, KK and the draft picks fare with the free agents.

Despite his occasional "jackpotting around", I think that Rod Benson is extremely intelligent and has the physical attributes that could very well land him a spot on the Jazz roster. I honestly can't understand why he hasn't had a shot. I think some teams are intimidated by his public image (The Boom Tho Movement)

Yeah, but what's Boom Tho's +/-?

Against the Lakers, will he be like Fes, the Greatest of Them All, with a positive +/- or will he suffer the same failures that befell every other Jazz player and be negative? I need to know!

So Paul Harris is that kid from Syracuse that a lot of board members wanted the Jazz to draft in the 2nd round last year and got hurt while preparing for a summer league right? Guess he could beat out Jeffers to fill out the roster since the Jazz will be looking for 1-2 cheap players to fill out the roster and one of those big guys as well, depending on how the FA and trade period goes of course.

Who the **** is Rod Benson? I am totally lost here.

I'm interested in seeing what Dragicevic can bring. He's compared to a (very) poor mans Larry Bird. He is 6'9", and is in between a 3 and 4 player.

Think more along the lines of Linas Kleiza

We've got a really good summer league team this year, I wonder if Wesley being so successful has very much to do with that.
