Richard Jefferson wanting to chase rings

[fallenchicken]

There are people who are mad about this? Link please.

Agree. I don't believe anyone's upset about Richard Jefferson.

 

[gomretat]

Wouldn't want him on the team if he didn't feel this way

 

[Park Bites]

trade him to NY

 

[Gameface]

Whoever's upset is a moron on many levels.

A multi-level-moron?

I'm impressed.

 

[Harambe]

Send him to the clips for reddick.

We all know about sign and trades, too bad there is not a buy-out and trade. Even a buy down to 3 million would make him tradeable.

Green.... Green....

What? Would I be upset? Why? Because Jefferson is older and wants to chase rings? What player doesn't? Good for him. He is irrelevant to the Jazz. To say he hasn't been good for the Jazz is ignorant. He has been good for the Jazz. He has been good for the younger players. It's great that they have seen how a professional gets ready for games and competes. If Utah can get something for him, they'd be crazy not to.

If you thought Jefferson was going to be here past this year...

We are just tissue paper. Players use us then throw us away.

Millsap, Mo, and Al used us last year.

Now we are letting Marvin and Jefferson use us this year.

We never learn.

I'm all for vets filling up spots and playing small roles. But no after what David Locke says, it makes no sense letting those 2 vets play major roles on this team.

No doubt championship contenders are beating down this guy's door to play meaningful minutes

There’s nothing particularly funny about age-related decline, but it is downright impressive that Jefferson has started every game for the 4-19 Jazz even though this is the sixth straight year that his PER has decreased. Jefferson boasts a 111.9 defensive rating, one of the very worst marks on the league’s worst defense. His 9.4 PER ranks among the very worst starters at his position, and Utah has a minus-2.8 net rating when he’s off the court compared to a minus-18.4 rating when he’s on the court. That’s the type of seepage the All-Atrocious Team is desperately seeking

lol

trade him to NY

Maybe not NY but see if his desire to win along with his mini resurgence can get us a trade. Maybe a second rounder or some other scrub.

For those thinking that we are gonna trade jeffy for something, I got news for ya

Just cause the jazz are dumb enough to give him a starting job does not mean the rest of the league is fooled into thinking he is actually any good.
Jefferson sucks and has a big contract...... I don't think teams are gonna be tryin to hard to pry him away from us with hopes that he will help a good team get over the hump and win a title. Lol
