I'm impressed.

I asked the guy in front of me why he was booing. His response, "Because Deron left us!" That's all I needed to hear. He had no idea what he was doing.

Clearly, this ends the debate.

In other news, an Arabic newspaper has recently been quoted:
... our reporter recently spoke with a homeless man in Salt Lake City and asked him his thoughts on the conflicts in the Middle East. The toothless man vehemently stated, "Them there Mooslums need to burn in Hell with the rest of them thar terrorists!", which was all that we needed to hear. America is 100% anti-Islam, and we should nuke them.

I'm fine with booing him. It's your decision. I just find it a little petty and sad they felt like they needed to boo on every touch.
 
I felt bad for Deron last night. We slaughtered them and held him to season low production, I believe (too lazy to check, but if not it's gotta be pretty close).

I feel worse for Memo though, because if NJ can't land Howard then you know Deron will bolt for a contender and Memo will likely be stuck there to finish out his career. Sad state for someone who gave us so much.

Why is memo stuck there? He's a free agent just like Deron.
 
Anyone who booed Deron repeatedly last night, or enjoyed that he was booed, are not real Jazz fans. They're cowards in my book and clearly uneducated when it comes to basketball. They're the fans who just want to be a fan of something. As the Jazz are the only sports team in the state I know the options are limited, so all the mindless idiots who are desperate to fit in all end up being Jazz fans. There was no reason to boo him. If it weren't for his rapid emergence once given playing time, and mere presence, I'm not totally sure the Jazz would still be around. The franchise was headed for the toilet after Stockton-Malone.

Don't get me wrong, since the trade was made I'm completely on board with this current Jazz team and think we're a couple pieces away from being a title contender once again - and I wanted us to beat the Nets by 50 last night while limiting Deron as much as possible.

How much demand do you think there is for him? I am guessing not a lot, considering injury history and drop off in production. If he gets on with a contender I would be shocked.
 
But chitown. You forget that a lot of people bought nose bleed seats for 10 bucks and they paid the jazz salary so they had every right to boo.

He won't get a huge deal, hell even Kwame Brown was in demand. He got 8 million for GSW. Memo still has 2 things going for him. Size and a shot. I would be shocked if he went unsigned or if there were no demand for him.
 
Yeah I could totally see feeling sorry for Memo. I would say it goes; girls caught in the sex slave trade, a 6'11" man making 11million dollars per NBA season, babies born with a meth addiction and victims of genocide worldwide as far as the order in which I feel bad for certain people.

I'd like Memo's correspondence if anyone has it, we could become pen pals and hopefully meet at some point. That could be a real treat for him and maybe make him realize there are people that care.
