What's new

Seats are gettin' HOT in Orlando; could we get DH?

Why would we want Dwight?

So he could play in Utah for a few months and bail?

Sounds like a great way to become successful. Trade away assets for one superstar who will leave in a few months. Genius. While we're at it, lets just cut Derrick Favors and sign on Greg Ostertag.

Championship.
 
I do believe KoC would be smart enough to ensure Dwight would sign an extension with us before we ever tried trading for him. Just a hunch...
I doubt Orlando would do a deal with us unless Favors were included. I'd have no problem with adding the GS pick.
 
This guy throws his whole team under the bus about coming to compete all while causing all kinds of drama and demanding trades? Time to throw himself under the bus, accelerate a bit, throw it in reverse, accelerate, repeat, etc.
 
He did go into luxury tax spending twice in a row. How many times did Larry do that?
Put that on Larry H. as the big contracts - except for the extension given Memo - were already in place. Besides, part of the plan was to get certain tax relief when Boozer opted out and got his raise, "regardless." When he didn't, the choice was simple: gut the team for a year and lose the support of fans, or take it in the shorts for a couple of seasons. We've already seen Greg authorize the dumping of Brewer, which angered and alienated the Jazz' franchise player, and give up a very good backup PG in order to dump Harpring's contract. We could have really used Ronnie B. when AK went down and Maynor would have been a huge upgrade over some of our other backup points.

I do commend Greg and KOC for taking a shot with Big Al. They could have easily just let Boozer walk without getting a TPE and kept the picks (and Koufos).
