Summary

They're trying to trade Carlos Boozer, and they evidently intend to match Portland's offer for Paul Millsap.

After all, the Jazz do control his rights — and, because he opted in, he no longer has a say in the matter.

As for the Bulls, a three-team deal that would have sent Boozer to Chicago, brought forward Tyrus Thomas to Utah and moved guard Kirk Hinrich from Chicago to Portland broke down late last week.

But the Bulls, who remain interested in moving Hinrich, and Jazz continue to talk.

"Great organization, top-notch from top to bottom," Boozer, speaking to WMVP, said of the Bulls. "They do things very professionally there.

"At the same time, they have a very good group of talent there.

"If I was able to come there," he added, "I'd add a lot, especially in the low post and being a leader as well."

Everyone knows Boozer

is moving when the Jazz get the right offer. It will not hurt anything to play him up to Feb. If the Jazz are a top 3 team in the West they may even want to consider keeping him for the rest of the year.

I think it is best to let Millsap More..

Sick and

tired of this story. Just move him already. He's obviously already emotionally gone anyways. And I don't even care if we keep Millsap anymore. If I were owner, I would do whatever DWill wanted me to do.
