    Perhaps LaMacrus' is, but Oden still kind of has to stay healthy to even manage a shot. That is like an average person winning the lottery at this point. :(

    Well I guess Lamarcus can just do like he has the last 3 seasons and not improve his game at all! Maybe even his blocke per game average can drop for the 3rd year in a row!

    It does wonders that these good players are heading East, I like it as well.

    I am pretty sure he meant that we are doing well because a lot of the west teams are getting weaker, not that we don't have cap to do anything.

    Jazz are hoping for sign and trade with Chicago. (Trade exemption and Taj Gipson)

    I say Offer Wes Mathew the whole mid level so the Jazz match and have no other options to add players.

    Why would Chicago do it when they can just sign him outright? Unless there is something in it for Chicago I am missing, no reason to lose pieces when they can just outright add Boozer.

    Exactly, if it is 5 years, there's no real incentive for Chicago to give Utah a large TPE and Taj Gibson. Although, Utah's so cheap, I doubt they'd use the exception anyways.

    My Jazz fan friends are pissed. Not that Boozer is gone, but because they got nothing for him. Last January they had lofty deams of trading Boozer for a big, and getting a great young PF with NY's pick. Instead they lose Boozer for nothing, lose Korver, lose Okur until about January and draft a soft SF with their lottery pick.

    Ouch

    With all the talent signing in the east, standing pat is making our regular season easier, but standing pat does not make us a title contender!

    I have no pity for them. They stole Boozer from a blind man trying to pay Carlos early. What goes around sometime actually comes around.

    True, but just being healthy would bring us much closer to that. I'm not saying we should do nothing, but the fact is that even as is our path to contention is much easier without Stoudemire and Boozer.
