Three-point shots…

Deron Williams on Twitter: "Good luck to my boy @EMaynor3 in OKC besides when we play them!" (Sent Wednesday after Jazz-Thunder trade).

Eric Maynor on Twitter: "just got traded to Oklahoma city....................i wus always told everything happens for a reason." (Posted Tuesday after the Jazz had 10 million-plus reasons for the trade.)

On Jody's Jazz blog: Carlos Boozer shook a young boy's hand and asked what he got for Christmas. The boy told him he received a Paul Millsap jersey, to which Booz responded: "I got to get me one of those, too."
