Alright, so the Jazz are missing that one thing that seperates the contenders and the pretenders. They need a tough guy who comes in and mixes it up with the opposing team, and gets in their head a little it.

Matt Harpring could be that player, but he just isn't fit enough to do it anymore. He can't be getting 20 minutes on a team that is contending for a championship, and nobody else is really doing it.

So the Jazz have two options, either Millsap or Deron need to become that guy, or the Jazz need to pick somebody up.

So I was wondering, who do you think could come in and be that veteran tough guy who gets to the other teams? Brendan Haywood would be a good option, but he's out maybe for the season with a wrist injury. Jerry Stackhouse as much as I hate him has the attitude, but is shooting a miserable 29% from the field this season.

The Jazz need muscle, where is it going to come from?

I was hoping Fesenko could be this kind of player but my Fesenko hopes are pretty much gone. Millsap is a hard worker and a beast down-low but doesn't have that "Get out of my house and go **** yourself" attitude. I don't think Williams is physically intimidating enough. Right now Harpring is the only player that really mixes things up and gets under people's skin but he's on a quick decline and his toughness doesn't justify his play anymore. Even though he did used to play football. I can't think of anybody I'd want to trade for but Millsap and to a lesser extent Fesenko could turn out to be hombres.

Etan Thomas, maybe? Is PJ Brown retired?

I have always thought that Mikki Moore would be a player that we could use with this team. He brings a certain attitude that is lacking with this team. An intensity.

I also think that Raja Bell would be such an asset to this team. This team just lacks a certain intensity. That those guys would add.

The player is right on the bench: Harpring.

I am not a harpring fan, but the one thing I will say about him is that he does piss off players with his style of play. Inject some roids into harp and let him do his thing.

Rafael Araújo anyone?

Danny Fortson?

Well gee, let's just bring Ben Handlogten back.

Koufos will be that guy

Koufos calls everyone sir. He's no bad boy.

Kosta "Business Time" Koufos in action.
