Weaver cut from the team

[Favors Flave]

WTF does Millsap and Favors have anything to do with this. You confuse me with your posts

Al Jefferson Plays the 5 so he should continue to play that, but Earl Watson may play again. Maybe not in the same arena, or same number, but he might play.

No Weaver...well, there goes the season.

The thing is, we already have Millsap and Favors at the 4, a position that Weaver does not play. So, we should have a good core going forward. Hopefully Weaver scores 19 points again, but not necessarily in the same arena OR wearing the same jersey.

Drunk again tonight?

This is unreal. He drops 19 on the Kings last Sunday and gets the boot today. Just to save a few bucks. No one is going to want to play here if that's the way players are treated.

I don't think anyone will decline coming to Utah because of how the Jazz treated Weaver. He was a D-league call up on a 10-day contract, and he played 10 days. Unlike many D-league call-ups, he played in all 5 games while with the Jazz (71 minutes). He's probably grateful for the opportunity to remind the NBA what he can do.

When the Jazz picked him up, they were missing Harris, Price, Bell and AK. The PG and SG spots were very thin. With Harris back (and who knows what Price/Bell's status is), they just don't need him for two meaningless games. They picked him up in an emergency situation, and now the emergency is over.

You have high demands for 5th guard on a **** team.

So do the Spurs.

So do the Spurs.

Jacque Vaughn was a brick-layer and their 2nd string PG for half a decade. You're ridiculous.

So do the Spurs.

And actually, Tony Parker's never been a great shooter either.

Guy seems to have some ability. Hope he cracks a roster next year.

Did anyone notice Jeffers box score Saturday. 13 points 11 boards. The 11 rebounds led both teams.

I would never expect Weaver to be a regular starter in the NBA, but I did think he was already better than Ronnie Price even though he was new to the plays and the system.

Let us be honest. The Kings game was an aberration anyway. They really did not even guard him at all. Pretty sporadic and erratic in the other games, but i can still see him being a 12th,13th guy on a roster. We probably did not want to spend any extra money in two meaningless games. Let Hayward play 40+ and see if CJ can give some effort and earn a pickup on his contract.
