I feel bad for the Bucks. The Jazz didn't deserve this one. Although at least they showed some heart at the end of the game. Memo had some huge boards in the clutch and AK had some nice defensive plays. Deron disappeared during the 2nd half. Boozer has to cut down the turnovers. He'ss been killing us with his 5 turnovers per game. The bench needs more production. What has happened to Price and Korver being a nice spark off the bench?
I might be alone on this one, but I would absolutely trade Boozer for Bogut.

Boozer for Bogut would be an awsome trade.

^ Bogut would be made into an all-star on the Jazz. He would bring amazing defense AND can score/rebound. You could make a good argument for it.

I would hope you are alone, Boozer is better then Bogut, but I would definitely throw Memo or AK over there for him, that guy is a legit center in this league. Exactly what the Jazz need.

Anyways, the last two Jazz wins have been come from behind after trailing significantly in the 4th quarter which is a very good sign. They need to get better and not putting themselves in that position but it shows they do have some heart on the road.

not really, this is the NBA! the bulls definitely didn't do anything special, the jazz have a way of letting other teams take control of the game on the road, and great teams try to make sure that doesn't happen.

AK for Bogut makes no sense. Boozer or Okur for Bogut much better.
Imagine Memo at 4 & Bogut @ 5 our d would improve significantly

We did not deserve to win this game. I fear that by winning this contest might deviate Utah from focusing in weakness and heavy stupidity this game.

Already two games in a row in which Boozer keeps compromising us. I keep count too of the most important stat... 29-3 when Deron has 11+ AST.

I wouldnt mind having Bogut on our team, but there is NO WAY IN HELL I would trade Boozer for him....WHY in the world would you trade an all-star caliber power forward, for a 3rd year player who hasnt proven anything.......

Yeah, but Bogut isnt that much better of a defender. Yeah he gets a few blocks a night, but other than that his defense is seriously lacking....I think Boozer could be a good defender, I just dont think he gives enough effort. He gets a lot of steal and has quick hands, but he just doesnt always give 100%. If you look at the Rockets series last year, he played great defense. He has it in him, he just needs to exert more effort on the defensive end.

No, that's wrong. His D has been significantly better this season, and not just blocked shots. He is far and away the best defender on the Bucks, and while that's not saying much it is actually one of his biggest strengths now and definitely not 'seriously lacking'. That being said I think you'd be stupid to trade Boozer for Bogut as well.

Edit: I should add, about 40 games into the season Bogut was leading the league in charges taken as well.

Uhhh, you must not have seen Bogut play. Its not his fault the Bucks use him so horribly. He would be a great great player if he touched the ball a lot more. He already has NBA defense and offense, unfortunately the Bucks never really play to his strengths on the offensive end.

Actually Bogut is pretty good.. if you noticed, the only game that Milwaukee had on the inside was penetration layups from their guards, but sparely and terribly they know how to use Bogut and kick it in to him.

Under our team he would be a 15/12 guy I think easily.
