I like how he said him and Williams have been communicating regularly since the trade. How he hopes him and Deron will be here for a long time together and win a championship.

I am excited to see how Jefferson and Williams play together. Hopefully their excitement for each other means good chemistry on the court.
 
“One reason I came to Utah is so me and Deron could grow old together and win a championship,” Jefferson said. “No disrespect [to Stockton and Malone] … I hope we are better and we win a championship. I hope so. I would love that.”
 
sorry you can merge or delete this. we must have been writing our posts at the same time.
 
I think we need to keep them separate. They are unique. But I don't wanna backseat mod.

Uh...I don't think Jefferson had a choice to come to Utah. Odd that he would say that.
 
Such a happy thought...that he wants to grow old with Deron.

It is nice to hear a player WANTS to be in Utah. But does the LHM group sell Bentleys? I know they have a big Toyota dealership.

In his press conference he said when he knew it would be between Dallas and Utah Jefferson told his agent to work as hard as he could to make sure he goes to Utah.

I think he said in an interview that he preferred Utah over Dallas and told his agent to make it happen if possible. What's more encouraging is that he's willing to stay (assuming Deron does). Now, at what price, who knows? But if he turns into an all-star, then we have our Big 2 and perhaps could convince one more very good player to sign at the MLE to form our own version of the Big 3.

Add 2 all-star caliber players alongside the best PG, you just may have something, especially if you can surround them with a couple of other quality starters and 3-4 good bench players.

Because Jefferson's agent had SO much leverage in negotiating with the 'Wolves.
