Price

Price's hard work beats Almonds talent when Almond doesn't work as hard as Price.

Hopefully

Almond can get some minutes off the bench and contribute

I'm sure the reason Dr. Ferkel hasn't called the Jazz is because the scope didn't show a thing. The Jazz are no doubt wondering why Carlos needed three opinions, two normal MRIs, an MRI with contrast that showed nothing and a sham surgery to figure this out. FYI, Hornacek played for the last five years of his career on two knees that became swollen nightly. See you back on the job in May, Mr. Boozer. Enjoy that 12,000,000 dollars.

I like this call, I think this lineup with Price will match up well with the Pistons small lineup.

Wrong procedure?

I think the doctor operated on the wrong body part - they need to fix Boozer's heart, not his knee.

I say Sloan should experience more with Korver, let him start until Miles is ready to play. You never know what Korver could do as a starter.

It will work great if Price passes and doesn't shoot all of those layups that he is amazingly consistent at missing. Stick him out at half court where he can hit something.

Price is the best defender on Utah's team. He is a perfect choice to face AI. I just heard Bloooozer got traded for Ostertag, and a couple of Jazz dancers. Great deal in my book, and I despised Tag!

Price or Almond

either is a huge upgrade over miles,go jazz!!!!

Miles

is not only unproductive,but his lack of effort is hurting the team,too bad about the sprain,but it`s the best thing that could happen to the Jazz

Don't let the door hit you where the good Lord split you. We are just fine with Milsap...and he actually comes back quickly from his injuries. I hope Boozer leaves at the end of the season. He's seems to be injured more than not. Let Miami or New York deal with him.

This is nothing new! Forget Boozer Milsap is the man! Dump Boozer for someone else. If the Jazz Dump Boozer and are willing to go over the cap and spend the $$$ on a GREAT Player then they will WIN. Teams with Title are teams that pay out the $$$$$ take a hit Jazz!!

to Carlos, I agree with you, but lets at least get something for him. A trade would be a better option.

Boozer....

I guarantee that it will be at least 10 weeks instead of 4 weeks. Every time you hear about a Boozer injury timetable, you usually need to triple it.

Keep Boozer

Everyone that says we need to trade Boozer is right, but also wrong. Though Milsap is having a great season filling in so far, he isnt the solution long term this season. If the Jazz can get Boozer back before the All Star break, they could make a run for better playoff positioning (right now they are not even going to the playoffs). Imagine how the strength of the bench will be because of all the playing time they are getting due to injuries. I think Williams has been a little inconsistent due to all the lineup changes. With Boozer back, we only get better and deeper, and only with Boozer do we have a chance at going deep in the post season. With that being said, Boozer needs to man up and get back before the season is lost. Ive accepted the fact that he wont be back next year, so ONLY if Utah can get an all star shooting gaurd in return, than go ahead and trade Boozer. Remember, Stockton and Malone were great, but they couldnt get there without Horny. Maybe get a guy like Michael Redd or Ben Gordon, and who knows. Its risky.

Give Boozer a one way ticket out of town. Remember how BAD he was in last years playoffs. No Heart.

Before All-Star break. . .

Dream on. Boozer will milk his "recovery" for as long as he can, and you won't see him in a Jazz uniform anytime before the end of the season. He really doesn't care about basketball -- it's the money, the fame, and the glory. D-Will's tats say "No guts, no glory." But Booz's head tells him, "No guts, lots of bucks."

Carloser Who?oser

This guy is the ultimate big pansy! Millsap knows how to play inside. Yet all Carlos does is shot that pansy fade away!
