Siler has been tricked apparently.
can we do a sign and trade with bulls and get taj gibson in a package deal of some sort? We're losing booz for nothing which makes us worse and that's not an opinion, it's a fact! we must get something in return
...exactly! His pick and rolls with Rose will look like something out of a funny farm....expect a SERIOUS increase in his turnovers as well...and they were too numerous to fathom when he was here!
You'd probably have to take Deng's hefty deal to get a sniff at Gibson. Still interested?
Bulls don't want to give up Deng, but if they did, no I would have no interest. Deng Freakin SUCKS
Jazz just regressed. Hope the Boozer haters are happy. Jazz are now a 41-41 team at best.
Heard this on the way home from work.
While I'm excited that this bum is no longer on our roster they should have traded his *** 2 years ago like I have been pushing and gotten something of value for him instead of just letting him walk for nothing.
For those calling for a S & T, why would Chicago have any interest in giving the Jazz anything they would want? They might offer Deng but with his contract that's a no go without Gibson and a future pick as well. Since Chicago has no interest why should they deal with the Jazz on a S & T?
PS. I only read the 1st page before posting this so if it's been addressed I apologize. I'm going to read the rest now.
You know, I tire of Jazz fans using hyperbole to bolster their point. I'm guessing no one expected us to contend with Boozer on this team. However, we had at least a solid nucleus to be pretty good. And pretty good in the exceedingly improved west probably meant at least the second round in the playoffs.
The most ideal situation? Of course not. But I had a helluva lot more fun cheering on Utah over Denver than I did when we were an eighth seed the year prior.
Now we'll be lucky to grab that eighth spot because not only did we regress as a team, we did it in a conference that is getting better and better.
So was Boozer the difference between lottery and championship? Of course not. But he was the difference between mediocrity and fairly decent.
I'd take fairly decent over mediocrity every damn time. I know some fans don't see the difference and believe if you're not contending, it's pointless - but I'm not of that line.
Unfortunately, I think the Jazz are now destined to be an average team. Maybe 8th, 9th or 10th in the west. Which isn't good enough for an ideal playoff spot and certainly not bad enough for a good pick in the NBA draft.
Harsh, Colorado.i have read this board quite often in the past week and to me you seem like a clown who knows nothing bout ball..But go ahead and preach on brother with you nonsense
Not to even mention that Luther gotz hopz, eh? He threw a pass to himself off the backboard, off the dribble from behind the free throw line, no less, then dunked in an all-star game when he was just a high school senior. It really goes without no kinda sayin, but....
Luther, he ROCKS, eh!?

Better to regress than keep the same team together for a 5th try. I for one am happy as hell.
