One nice thing about Jefferson coming to Jazz

Discussion for professional sporting events/teams and players.

This would be a great place to discuss the Super Bowl, the NBA Playoffs or whatever else.

One nice thing about Jefferson coming to Jazz

Post by Florwood »

Dallas' attempt to get Jefferson was derailed because they wanted Minnesota to take DeShawn Stevenson. Nice that DeShawn finally helped out the Jazz...

Jefferson coming to Jazz

Post by Mars »


My little Jazz timeline (because I'm bored):

The Utah Jazz lose Carlos Boozer, a free agent, to the Chicago Bulls (five years, $75 million), and Utah gains a $14MM Salary Cap Exception in a Sign-And-Trade with Chicago
The Jazz lose Kyle Korver, a free agent, to Chicago (three years, $15 million)
The Jazz lose Wesley to Portland
The Jazz trade for Minnesota Timberwolves Power Forward Al Jefferson (three years, $42 million left on his contract)
Minnesota gets Center Kosta Koufos from the Jazz, and two 1st-Round Picks, including the conditional first-round pick it got from Memphis in the Ronnie Brewer trade

Al Jefferson's history:
2010- 17.1 points and 9.3 rebounds
2009- Major knee surgery
2008- 23.1 points and 11 rebounds
2007- 21 points and 11.1 rebounds (five-year, $65 million contract)

Jefferson is a strong offensive play that plays a slower style of game and doesn't play good defense.
