    Meaning, when do they have to match or not match for Millsap?

    I am guessing Friday night or early SAT, MG was unsure last night on the broadcast, sorta weird that there is no exact date at this time.

    Have these guys not heard of pdfs? Did it really have to wait for the Fedex guy to show up on the doorstep? It's crazy.

    Friday is the day Maxie, but I am not sure what the official time is. During the game last night the Mike's said that was the magic question because no one really seemed to know. I would assume that the front office is aware though.

    Even if Utah has a deal in place, I bet they wait until the very last minute or second to match it.

    Why would they do that? If they have a deal in place, they will pull the trigger. Why wait?

    A deal in place and matching Millsap are two different transactions. They could deal Boozer now, and still wait until the last second on Friday to match Millsap.

    Of course. Where did I say to wait on pulling the trigger? I said wait until the last minute to 'match the offer'

    Oh yeah.. forgot. You failed. ;)

    Interesting that MB hasn't found out exactly when the Jazz have to match. It would seem pretty easy information to find.

    And I agree with everyone here that the Jazz are going to wait as long as possible before letting the NBA know of their decision, even if they've already made it.

    Maxie didn't see that you edited your post, so it looked like you were apologizing for Alex's post.

    Really? When did he say that? Everything I had heard was that it's Friday.
