Jazz fans started booing him because of all the idiots in the stands cheering for him. And yes most of them were "ute" Jazz fans.
Warriors, Jazz and Nuggets in sign-and-trade talks......

I agree the first game was that way, but last year when the dude played like 5 minutes, had no bearing on the game, people still booed. I didn't hear many cheers. I could care less by the way. I'm a Weber St. Graduate, and played football there, so I bleed purple all the way.
A second-round pick isn't worth helping the Warriors. And that's not me being spiteful, that's pure business. Them gaining their mid-level exception is HUGE for them since without it, they would pretty much be locked into the roster they already have.
I missed that, all I can say is that what happened on the Jazz's floor during Jimmer's rookie year is one of the most embarrassing things I've ever seen as a Jazz fan and zoobs everywhere should've felt shame even if they weren't a part of it.

I think you would agree that remains to be seen. I have been wowed by the moves of late and I can just feel/sense that a plan is being perfectly executed.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I trust the FO right now.
There are some trashy, classless Jazz fanz for sure. Covering their eyes at Fisher was another. Disgraceful and pathetic. If I was the owner I would have start booting people for acting that way.
A MLE for a team that could be considered a contender is huge and that's amplified by the fact that they'll owe an unprotected pick in a great draft and right now have almost NO depth on the roster.
I am much more trusting of the organization right now and I typically don't believe the cons outweigh the pros when trading with a rival that still makes your own team better, but when an unprotected pick is in play, hurting that team suddenly becomes a real factor. And this is coming from a pick-junkie.
Jazz should at least get more for this. Like, Quincy Miller.
Also, it's likely the Warriors' additions from the addition of a(n) MLE would get them at least one win, and one win could easily be one slot in the draft, and one slot in the draft can be the difference between getting who you want and getting someone you're okay with. Bear in mind that had the Raptors (/Jazz) won the coin-toss in 2012, they would've picked 8th and missed Harrison Barnes by a slot.
This is me being conservative. Getting Nedovic gives them a shot at having a good backup PG (something they don't have right now) in addition to some potential depth in their big rotation (which they are also abjectly lacking, although I'd need to take a look over who's still on the market). Surely, such additions could swing what might be an otherwise close game to the Warriors favor. A couple of points in win differential over the course of a season can move you a lot of spaces. This extra spending ability could definitely swing several games for them.

I hadn't considered it from this point of view. Realistically, this could swing the pick from the 18-22 range to the 22-26 range, so it's not that huge a deal, but I still hate to take the hit on the first rounder. I'll side with the mob and say I trust the FO.
I wouldn't devalue the trust they inspired in me by calling it "faith".
The FO has made a string of great decisions that can only be interpreted as the result of long-term vision and thorough planning and reflection. They earned my trust with their actions the same way Corbin earned my distrust with his mismanagement.
