Recently he attended to a basketball tv program in Turkey and told couple of things which arent significantly important but anyway i wanted to share with people.
At first he told like, he didnt touch the ball for long time and he missed basketball so much and still regrets his decision to come back early so it made things worse
The commentators asked about Jerry Sloan issue and he politically answered as he doesnt think its about Deron. Jerry always said if he wake up one morning and doesnt feel the power, he will retire. Then commentators told like, but i dont think Jerry is a guy who would leave things in the middle. I think there is another reason which provoked it. And memo told like, mabe he felt he doesnt have the same authority in players anymore. He also told how important jerry was for his careeer and he owes his allstar performance to him. And told in a funny way, he attributed to me a lot but i changed his game plan, he always played with classic centers before, not shooters.
Then they asked about the millsaps improved performance and he told, he was already very good last year(or the year before im not sure) when boozer was injured. He told 'me and millsap was a very good couple and understand eachother in the court very well. And he comes to practises early, he works hard, and i think Jerry Sloan loved his this side a lot'.
They also asked about Enes and he told, i didnt see him play but i heard he is good. Comentators told it would be an advantage for Enes' growth to be with anotherTurkish player in team. So memo told he hopes to see him in his team.
And last, they asked like what about utah, it seems hard for u guys to be contender again what u think?
He told, now we r rebuilding. In season there was chaos, and it was difficult for players. Also when asked about deron, he told deron is the best point guard together with Derrick rose in the league. Paul is good too but these two is best for me. But harris also is a good player. He suddenly found himself in the middle of fire when he came, thats why he is criticized but he is a very good player indeed. But anyway, Utahs first goal is to reach playoffs right now, rather than contending as he implied.
I kinda understood from his body language that he is willing to play a couple of years more staying in Utah, i wonder what people thinks, after this year, would u like to see Memo with a mid level exception or a favorable deal?
