    Meh. Doesn't really propel big D to the upper echelon still.

    I think they have been missing a post presence for years.his low post game is a perfect counter to Dirk's game.

    It's not a done and last I read the Jazz were also in discussions for Jefferson. I actually think the Jazz have the better chance to get Jefferson if they really want him. Dal wants to give back some bad contracts. They have Boozer's TPE and a first round pick from Memphis they can use to get Jefferson.

    I also read Utah might make a run at Al. Tough summer for Utah if this is true . . . actually tough summer for Utah no matter what

    I have been reading some Jazz forums just checking to see what they thought about Matthews and if the Jazz would match. I see they are excited to get Jefferrson and need C/PF really bad with Okur injured and losing Boozer.

    Presumably if the Jazz get him, they'll let Matthews walk. (So it's good or bad depending on how you think about Matthews for that price.) Then they'll be forced to play Millsap at SG.

    It should be fun to see Jerry Sloan watching Jefferson's defense...

    No I think they would play Miles at SG. They would play Jefferson at center and Millsap at PF. I think they will sign Brewer for the SF. That's if they don't match Matthews.

    Jazz get Jefferson for the trade exception.


    Most likely means they won't match Matthews though

    I bet they pick up a summer-league-er or maybe Roger Mason for a BAE level contract.
