Hope it is for something larger than just a third string PG. Praying it is something significant. :D

I hope O'Connor will do something that will really help the Jazz.

P.S Hope Ak stay with Utah )

I think I would give my left testicle if Okur is out. Give me a traditional, hard-nosed center.

Hope we get a defensive minded player. Wouldn't mind if it were Boozer if it's for a defensive big, or two for one that would improve our defense. Okur going would be good, he was nice while Boozer was out in the past, but this year he's been terrible. Kirilenko might as well stay, unless we get someone who can help in return.

I think its time to let Booz and Okur go.Booz is gone anyway and the money man just is not worth it anymore.As for keeping Ak im a big fan of that.I feel if Ak was on the floor we would have less turnovers.Having him on the court is like having another PG on the floor. You could throw in the knicks pick at this point!they are going to make the playoffs. With those pieces we should be able to get something sinifigant back.

Just a thought: I dont think you "hint" in advance at a minor swap. :wink:

Houston is not going to take on Kirilinko's horrible deal for the 10-17 draft pick. In this economic climate its just not worth it.

I doubt we'll see a big move by tomorrow. Most likely they'll sign some scrub guy to a 10-day contract.

That's a stupid prediction unless it's top 10 protected.

Ugh, we're trying to get better, and expirings don't really help the Jazz. They have enough expiring money as it is.

A KOC type move would be to sign Jason Hart because he is a vet familiar with the system.

you can count on it being a deal with the jazz saving money

that would most likely include Boozer or Kirilenko

Return to Utah Jazz
