    Utah have stated that they'd want a veteran PG as their 3rd PG.
    The best one out there might be Kenny Anderson, an unrestricted FA who played with the Pacers last season.

    Do you think Utah should sign him, or look at someone else?

    Brevin Knight just signed with the Bobcats so he's out of the question.

    Its been rumored that Dallas is considering waiving Dan Dickau. I know Dickau has been on 5 teams in less than 3 years, but he was injuried in Atlanta his rookie year during training camp and came to Portland mid-way through last season and got decent playing time while knowing very limited about their offense. I also know that the Jazz was really high on him coming out of college. I know he said he loved to play with the Jazz when they was working him out before the draft, but the Jazz also had his role model in John Stockton still playing. I think if we give him a shot, giving that Dallas waives him, he could make the team and be a good third point guard, alot better than say a Rusty LaRue or someone of that sorts.

    Dickau is worth a try, Arroyo was struggling to get any minutes before he arrived in Utah, now he's thriving there. I've heard Dickau performs better in a half court offense, and if he played in a Jazz half court offense he could have a great season. He hasn't found a team that suits him yet, and Utah have been a great place for guys trying to get a break, Dickau could be the same.
    He's also from Gonzaga like another Jazz PG :mrgreen: .

    I think this could be a small but, noticable improvement in the Jazz. He is only 34 years old so he isn't ancient, and, even though his numbers have declined over the past few years he knows how to pass, and how to score( a little) I think the Jazz shoudl pick him up since he is a great team player, and, there really isn't much to choose from anymore, they can't be too picky.
