Who will be missed more?

Matthews and it's not even close

For lady jazz fans: Korver. Those pink #26 are best sellers.

#23 just look at what he did for the blazers right out of the box.

Korver had a big game too.

Both had big games. Both will be missed. Both are overpaid.

I'm not gonna miss Korver.

I'm definitely going to miss Matthews.

Matthews, I see him excelling with the Blazers and only continuing to get better.

I don't think Korver will be that good with the Bulls, he is their only decent 3 pt shooter so teams can key on him on the perimeter when he's in the game. He'll miss D-will a lot so I see his percentages dropping significantly.

Rose will feed Korver just fine, he won't miss Deron that much.

As far as wins go, Korver will be missed more; as far as Sloan goes, Matthews will be missed more.

The Jazz management is going to miss Korver. I was surprised they didnt give Korver an equal offer to the one he got from Chicago just because of how much revenue he brings in by getting the ladies to the games and buying his T-Shirts and what not (I think Jersey sales dont directly effect Jazz revenue).

Mathews defense is going to be sorely missed by the coaches, fans, teams.

It is interesting to analyze the "value" of a player when you calculate into the equation the impact on sales and fandom of Korver. From a basketball contribution perspective I think that Wes will be missed more, while from the marketability standpoint, Korver would definitely take the cake.

Matthews is already fast becoming a Blazer favorite, we love his D, effort and hustle, and he's showing us some offense we never really expected. I think he was a steal for us, thx again.

Hooray. More Wes Matthews-related taunting by Blazers fans. I look forward to this all season long.

After an uncontested lay-up by Matthews in the third quarter of the season opener: "I had no idea he had such precision using the glass to get his shot off. Thx again!"

Totally uncalled for Blazinaway.

As far as this year, I think we may actually miss Korver more, simply because Bell can replace a lot of what Wes gave us, while we didn't pick up a dead-eye shooter in the off-season.

Can you call him a steal when you grossly overpaid for him? I mean they "stole" but he isnt a "steal".

It depends on what your definition of missed is. I am really worried that the team will miss Korver's three point and free throw shooting, as well as the jersey sales that were mentioned earlier.

I think that Mathews will be replaced easier. People really liked his story and his grit. Fans will find another favorite to replace him with.
