It's great for Millsap tht he is getting lots of interest, but bad for the Jazz. I hope the Jazz can figure out a way to keep him here in Utah. Best of luck to Paul no matter what happens.

Jazz management has had so many opportunities and always does what makes the fans upset. Milsap deserves to be on a better team because he is a great person and player. Jazz management is scum. Boozer and AK47 are cancer on this team and Jazz management does not care. Milsap does not care all about the money so Jazz management will let him go to punish the fans.

Too bad we had to keep Boozer and his lame injuries. We have to sign Millsap.. he can catch the ball and works through pain, unlike Carlos.

You are angry. Trust me - Millsap will be back. AK and Millsap get along great, and they play really well together.

i'll be quite surprised if jazz  | 2:20 p.m. July 1, 2009
don't actually re-sign millsap due to the obvious fact that they will only pay luxury tax for only 1 season and none after that. now things are going to start getting real interesting due to the fact that utah will have too many expiring contracts next summer and KOC head will be spinning like never before. i would think that if loozer just 'happens' to get injured that they better figure on trading him. if they lose millsap cuz of free agency and loozer is injured then i'll for sure be looking forward to the nba draft lottery. then again knowing loozer, he'll make darned good sure that he's healthy for ALL upcoming 82 games so that he can receive his 'raise' from the jazz or some other team next summer.

Why are the Jazz Management scum? Because they are being held hostage and trying to make the best out of the fact that Boozer is scum and won't keep any of his words, or because AK didn't pan out the way they had hoped? Their arms are tied but they are doing what they can.

offer him 7.5 per if not let him go. If he's worth more than that we'll see it, if not it shouldn't be that hard to trade him.

Yeah, angry Jazz fan, Jazz management is just trying to punish us fans. Their sole purpose is to torture us. Give me a break, they are doing their best with the options they have to create a championship team. There's nothing they can do right away about Boozer not opting out. You're right about Millsap being a great person and player, and here in Utah is exactly where we want him!

Same Old Team  | 4:19 p.m. July 1, 2009
next year with the same old excuses for being a lousy team and the same old suckers pouring their money in to the Jazz bucket as idol worshipers like to do.

I can't wait to see which player has the biggest diamond ear ring this year. sick.....

These other teams that are looking to sign Millsap have been made aware that the injured All-Star, Olympian bench warmer, Boozer is available for cheap!!!!

are you serious? what are you 9 years old?
The Jazz are fine, manegment is fine. NBA.com just did a story about the worst places for players to end up and UTAH was in the bottom groups. managment does the best with what they have.

give millsap 5 or 6 million a year hes not worth more than that he cant start unless he learns how to hit a jumper then he'd be an all star... the only question is when is KOC going to trade AK for maggette and turiaf so we can win a championship, or better yet try to get amare who the suns would give away for a ham sandwich right now... deron and amare in the pick n roll... would we ever lose a game?

being subjective is so easy! So here we go. I can be a self proclaimed GM like everyone else. Millsap wants to get paid! He has earned his money! Get over the honeymoon stage that we have been in for two years. It's time to let him go play for a team where he can get good minutes. Boozer will be great this year. His contract will be up! And BTW...chill out and take a look at what a train wreck the Clippers and the Timberwolves are in! Oh, and the Knicks, oh, and the Suns too. Mellow peeps!

The Pistons just signed Villanueva and Ben Gordon. Now they won't need Richard Hamilton. Maybe the Jazz can trade Boozer for Hamilton. That would free up 3 million is space, if the Clippers would trade Harpring and Korver for Camby that would free up another 3 million. I just saved the Jazz 6 million and got an interior presence and a good shooting guard. Two of the Jazzs' biggest weaknesses. I should be GM

DET is now out of the Millsap | 6:18 p.m. July 1, 2009
chase. OKC does not need Millsap. If they can steal him they may trade him (to who?). Until I see a concrete offer out of OKC I think it is just hassle by OKC and agent posturing.

MEM is a good fit but they are currently going in another direction. In a couple of days the teams that could bid more than the mid level exemption will be down to 1 or 2 and they will still have lots of options besides Millsap.

Lee is probably going to be gone but he will take out one of the potential Millsap bidders. Evidence that Millsap is not worth as much as Lee.

The jazz ca not afford to resign millsap.

millsap goen and that is that.

while he is very good backup at PF that is all he ever was or will be.

To win championships you need length and defense at PF spot.

It you want a good winnimg team millsap is fine,
if you want to win a championship he is not.

The best the jazz may hope for is a sign trade of Lee for boozer.
