*Official Sign Millsap in The Off-Season Thread*

Millsap is from Louisiana, humidity is no issue for him, he might even like it.

I prefer hot and humid to dry and cold, any day.

You do realize he won more games literally every year he was in utah than he did last year in Atlanta, right?

Utah also won a lot of games when John and Karl played, but I doubt that will factor in to Millsap's decision. If you had read a little further, you'd have seen that I wasn't referring to Atlanta, as I don't think he will stay there either. I realize it came off that way, but the point I was making is that he will have plenty of options in warmer climates and/or better win-now situations. I just don't think Utah has a shot unless we have a breakout year.

Yep, as do most NBA players.

Wiggins embraced the fact that he was gonna go to Minny though.

Another factor that could potentially be at play is that Lindsey wasn't the GM that took a shot on him with a mid-second round pick, but he is the GM who let him go after a good season and kept the coach when it should have been the other way around.

A plausible return situation I think would be if the Millsap believes that Snyder is special and it is confirmed with the Jazz exceeding expectations this season.

Which is why I said most instead of all.;)Also, I place little weight on what players/coaches tell the media. Most players know how to play the game of saying all the right things. Their agents coach them as to how not to devalue themselves by acquiring a problem child label. I'm not saying Wiggins wasn't being truthful, but put yourself in his shoes. He just went from being drafted on to a team that will likely go deep in the playoffs, playing with the best player in the game, to playing for one of the league's red-headed step children. If he was truly happy about that, he must have poo poo for brains, even if he absolutely loves cold weather.:cool:
 
I can see that happening if the Jazz goes for it. I wouldn't a year before when Corbin was on charge, but if you're saying he has ties with QS, it changes everything. Because I didn't think Sap would ever want back to Utah before. It's still a chance below %50 to me though.

Have you ever spent time in Cleveland? Being given a get out of jail free card and cashing it in with a smile is most definitely not a sign of poo poo brains.

I've always thought Houston was a great fit for Millsap.
