Retire his jersey. Dantley was a jerk too and he’s retired

I'll have to say this, too, that as much as I was pissed about the dissension between him and AK, I wasn't happy that the Jazz traded him. Then they made a second bad decision in promoting Corbin as coach. They should've weathered the tide, got a new coach while Corbin was interim and then reassessed the Jazz roster. They should've kept Deron and traded Boozer for Favors. I think Deron and AK could've reconciled; instead both of their careers went into a kind of tailspin after the trade.

Deron never recovered from that bad sprain when Rose ran under him on that three point shot. Never was the same after that.

Boozer was already gone by the time Deron was traded.

I remember that. It was an exhibition game. That possibly played a role. Never heard much about it after he recovered. Same thing you could say about AK who had some injuries that slowed him down.

You sure? You're right. I looked it up. Did the Jazz get anyone in return?

Boozer left in free agency, the Jazz got Al Jefferson as a replacement

If I remember correctly, Boozer was actually traded (S&T), receiving a massive TPE that we later used to acquire Big Al.

Ah, you're right. It was a sign and trade, he was going to Chicago either way.

Deron's bad attitude is what short circuited his career. I think if he had not let his success go to his head, he could've had a career like CP3, and I think he realizes it, based on comments I read some years after he left the Jazz.

Dantley was a jerk too

That's a rather broad oversimplification of Dantley and his tenure here.
