I get but don't see the LA trade comparisons since the LA got to keep Bynum (or Odom take your pick) while the trade itself is only Jazz & Minni, it was for all intent and purposes is a 3 team trade with the Bulls getting Booz or could even realistically say a 4 team with Mathews going to the Blazers for a larger pay day.
I think most people are happy with this trade, it helps ease my mind that Minni fans didn't want to lose Jefferson and the fact that any team that trades players with Minni comes out roses (ie Roy for Foye and KG to Boston). In my opinion at worst case this maintains status qua as far as Jazz remaining a top 5 team, best case is Jefferson maybe not this year but next year settles into the Jazz system and is a beast.
This trade still has some people complaining about KOC but they'd complain if he didn't make a move as well.... for not making a move.
Oh and for the record I still would like AK starting at PF and keep Milsap coming of the bench if Milsap is ok with it.
