I hope we get some Swedes on the forum.

I am a big fan, from Sweden. One of few (if not the only one). I've been following Jerebko since he came to Detroit. Happy that Utah Jazz will get some attention here in Sweden now. It's already happening.

Bodhi called it. Thabo. Jonas. Ekpe. Jazz are going full blown 2004 Pistons with this squad. If losing Hayward was what it took to pivot this direction. . . I'm okay with that. Been wanting this for two years now.

It now looks like the pull to play for Stevens was too strong. Glad to see the Jazz pissed off about it.

Now, how do we get Trevor Booker back?

He's an unrestricted free agent next summer! :-)

Awesome. The more the merrier around here.

Awesome! I'm half-Swedish. Mom is from there and my uncle still lives in Linköping (retired from Strålfors).

Thanks for finding that. I felt at the time that Jerebko and Smart were the ones that won that game. I honestly can't believe we were able to sign this guy for about four a year on a two year deal after the series he had against the Cavs. I would have been happy with signing a decent three (which we did in Sefolosha), so signing Jerebko as well on the same day then Udoh is like Christmas in July.:cool:

I like Jonas. He is like Matt Harpring with a 3-point shot. Since he was with Detroit, I have thought he was a solid, high energy player. Without the serious injuries he has had, I thought he would be a full-time starter somewhere.

Part of me, though, would rather have Boris Diaw's expiring $7.5m than Ikpe and Jonas for a combined $7.35 per year x 2. Boris solo is better than those two combined for basically the same money.

? What? Did Boris ever even finally make a three point shot last season? I like Boris the man, but I really think it's about time he hung it up. .247 from three is not good. Apparently the FO agrees with me as Boris has been waived. We're a much better team with the new additions IMO.

I can see why they went with Thabo to build on our defensive identity, but why Jarebko? I haven't seen him play much but there's a reason why that's the case isn't there?

He's a goon. Just like an enforcer in hockey. Hustle, effort and attitude off the bench. Plus, he talks a ton of ****. Going to love him and Jingles out there together. He's a bit of a hothead. Maybe a luxury, but I like him.

Yeah he feels to me like when you found a really cool t-shirt on sale 50% off, but you have to get 2 to get the discount. You don't really need that 2nd one but you got it anyway. You'd probably never use it, etc.
