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

I wonder what picks we will be giving up, I wouldn't mind giving up a first rounder, I mean those late draft picks haven't really helped us anyways

I just approved a Jazz roster move that I'm very excited about. Planning to share details tomorrow.

Is that for real? I mean if Greg said this, the move is a done deal. No one is so stupid as to say I approved the move, if didn't actually already happen, not even Greg Miller.
 
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.
 
YES! Looks like we've landed Big Al! Now let's hope that we didn't give up too much. I'm ok with a 1st & 2nd, or even 2 2nd's...two 1st's would be a stretch but it'd probably be ok. Getting a 18-20/10 guy at 25 y/o is HUGE for us. This is a much wiser use of $13M than Wes Matthews and Al Harrington. Worth the gamble, imo.

Al Jefferson will have career stats in Utah. He'll get easy looks and he'll get to the line more. He's played on bad teams his whole career.

Knees are valid. But what do you want? Boozer making 16/18/20 when he's 30, 31, and 32, or Jefferson making 13/14/15 when he's 25, 26, and 27? Kind of a no brainer. The only way you can get Boozer's production for the next two years is to pay for the 3 that come after.

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

How would you handle the offseason? Be specific. Be sure to plan for the future, while keeping seats filled this next season, while keeping in mind that our ownership does not own Microsoft.
