Miller allowed O'Connor to spend $68 million over the next six seasons to lure power forward Carlos Boozer from the Cleveland Cavaliers. He consented to spending $50 million over the next six seasons to sign center Mehmet Okur away from the NBA-champion Detroit Pistons. He agreed to re-sign point guard Carlos Arroyo and shooting guard Gordan Giricek, spending a combined $32 million over the next four seasons on the pair. Now, the man whose wallet is a few twenties lighter is seeking some bang from his bucks.</div> Link
I think this team will be good, I like what I have heard from all the players. They all seem to support Jerry Sloan and will not be satisfied without a playoff berth. So I think this team is going to be really good, just think this team is probably the best team since the final years. I can't wait for the season to start.
Their a good team. Dont know about their chances of getting a playoff berth though. Anybody can get the last two playoff berths out West. But I think they can pull out the 8th spot...barely.
I think the Jazz will make the playoffs. They have added Boozer and Okur, and they were badly missing size last season. They other teams have improved, however I just don't think a team that missed out on the playoffs by one game last season can miss out on them again when you consider the improvements they have made in the offseason. They're still coached by Jerry Sloan aswell, who brings the most out of everyone.
