I would guess, its the tone of the topic, it insinuates that by and large jazz fans on the forum are unintelligent. It is bound to piss some people off; I personally couldn't care less about how many posts the OP has, as long as the idea is coherent and respectful, its a good post. Being condescending is something most people don't like. Again its an amusing topic, because he demands that only thoughtful, intelligent comments be made, when in fact his questions have already been discussed to death and any "intelligent" person would have realized that. Whether this was his 1st post or his one thousandth post, this topic and his/her statements were misguided.

Deron/Price
Brewer/CJ/Almond
Kirilenko/Korver/Harpring
Okur/Millsap
Howard/Fesenko/Koufos

I think that team is pretty primed for a championship. And maybe we could even swing that sign and trade for Corey Maggette if the Jazz brass would get off their asses. :wink:


WTF? Why would a team want to trade the best center since Shaquille O''neal unless they could get a player of equal or superior skill? The only guy worth trading Howard for would be Lebron, and honestly I don't even know if I'd be willing to take that gamble.

I say this because I think a lot of Boozer's success is because he has a great pick and roll PG. I'd be willing to wait and see what Booz does because we do have developing players. The Jazz can afford to wait and see who needs to be paid later.


Total agreement here. Kyrylo and Kosta certainly are good prospects and I think Fes can contribute now and Kosta will do in no much time. The Jazz with an athletic good center would be Scary (capital S intended).

Agreed... yet the better way to treat misguided things is not to let the negative part of them to win...

IMHO it's always better to at least try to put the thing in some sort of better way... it's not so uncommon to see not so good starts ending up in not so bad things.
