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

[Chad Feldheimer]

So we're exchanging Boozer @ $15 mil x 5 years, for Al Jefferson @ $13 mil. x 3 years. Jefferson is younger, bigger, plays inside, and is cheaper. Good move.

well 14M (3y/42M)

Now flip another TPE to Toronto for Marco Belinelli to replace Korver and play back-up PG.

Guys, looks like KOC took a lead to acquire Jefferson: https://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/38215581/ns/sports-player_news/

LOL, which one of you guys changed his Wikipedia?

Look on the right. It says he is on the Mavericks in the sidebar. Someone is messing with all of us!

Can we hurry and re-sign Raul Lopez and include him? The GM for Minne sure has a boner for Spanish guys who won't play in Minnesota.

it better not be a Fes signing.


Archie: You owe the OP a big phat apology!

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.
