Another Boozer trade Rumor(I actually like it)

Let's just be pleased that there are multiple rumors about Boozer to Orlando. There is definitely a good scenario here, somewhere.

We would be taking back roughly double the salary that would be going out. There would have to be more to this that what is mentioned in the article. Carter already makes more than the maximun that could be offered to Boozer and then they add even more players.

Right, again VC doesn't want to play in Utah. He would be great trade bait for the Jazz and an opportunity to dump salary. Better than Orlando's TPE imo, we could possible get $$$ savings and a quality role player.

Carter's contract isn't horrible length-wise, but he makes way too much. He's at $17.3M next year with a team option at $18M the year after. So he's actually a potential expiring contract.

But the trade as posted above doesn't come close to working. The Jazz would have to send $22M+ to take back $27.6M on those three players. Boozer can only make ~$17M or so, so who else would the Jazz send to make this deal work?

Harpring's trade exception? I dunno how this **** works.
 
You do realize NBA players have salaries right? The incoming salaries of VC, Gortat and Bass are over $27.6 million and would put us $18 million over the tax obviously w/out resigning Matthews, Fesenko and Gaines.

But hey, if it means paying the luxury tax to get a soft 33-year old SG who disappears in the playoffs then I'm sure that's a risk the Jazz are willing to take.

Sam Bowie was the consensus for that pick by the NBA. You act like I care honestly? The Jazz are my favorite team.

Im just saying you need to stop getting butthurt giving our fans a bad name.

No. I would fully expect Blazer fans to dog me on their board too if I rocked a Jazz avatar.

Agreed. I think he would really step his game up if we gave him a nice new contract as incentive to play hard for us.

If any player needs money to play hard then I do not want him on the team. I doubt this deal has any validity because the Jazz are not going to take on more luxury $$$$ in order to do this deal. The Magic would have to give some draft picks to the Jazz to even think about doing this deal.

Actually, the consensus pick was Hakeem Olajuwon who was chosen ahead of both Bowie and MJ.
You have a Blazers logo on a Jazz fan site. Of course people are going to criticize you.
 
I like Gortat and Bass. Their contracts are reasonably sized. But I don't want anypart of Carter.

Something like Boozer for Bass, Gortat and Pietrus would be doable.

They should envy it, I mean atleast the Blazers won a ring. Our Jazz could try and do that too instead of settling for being average.
