and for all the people that say he's a 20 and 10 guy ...stats can be deceiving..
for that much cap space it might be worth it.
Haslem isn't a player that is going to keep us "fun and competitive" and as much as I dislike Boozer; this sounds like a very poor trade.
I don't know understand this team anymore. I hope this is a rumor like the Bulls-Thomas trade was and disappears in the wind.
This offseason is turning into another huge disappointment.
Millsap can't run the pick and roll. Does not have an outside shot with range. Does not draw a double team and results in getting the paint packed.
Haslim is a back up PF and those can be had for the MLE. The Jazz are essentially trading Boozer for Haslim.
That really is not bright and that kind of deal can be had any day with a lot of teams.
The big problem is replacing Boozer with Millsap. Millsap does not improve the defense enough to offset his loss of offense and his negative effect on other positions.
The Jazz need the ideal PF. I do not know if a good one is available right now. Lee may be an option but how to get him? Further, will he play defense?
He scores and rebounds better than Millsap but will he fit the Jazz system and he wants more money.
Harp can be traded for a backup PF.
