Utah Jazz: Bruised knee relegates Millsap to sideline

Close but wrong | 1:02 a.m. Jan. 13, 2009

"He didn't visit the Thunder there when the former Seattle franchise offered him a contract this summer ï¿½ a deal that never came to pass because Utah re-signed him."
This isn't the most accurate reporting. Miles was signed by OKC and then the Jazz matched the offer. So "re-sign" is wrong and it was more than just an "offered" contract, but whatever.

Who?

'Hope Millsap is back on the floor against OKC. I enjoy watching him give every ounce of his effort when he's on the court.

boozer who is that?

Dude you are a rocket scientist. How did you come to that conclusion? That's stepping out on a limb to make that statement.

Price is our team's "2 guard version" of Paul Millsap. Plays with every ounce of energy he has when he's out on the floor...I'd rather watch him play any day over the primadonna Miles. I hope Miles sits at home on the road trip with Bloozer. I have a hard time with both those week links!

To BJ Jazzy Rasta | 12:19 p.m. Jan. 13, 2009

Yes they are "week" links

states "I hate not playing," he said. "Especially at the beginning of my career as much as I sat and watched, that's the last thing I want to do. I hate not being able to be on the floor and help the team and compete and things like that."

Seems to me that regardless of being on the floor or not there at all makes little difference. I don't see that Miles was missed at all last night. This makes one wonder why do the Jazz pay all that money to some one that rarely contributes?

Yeah, i agree miles part. The jazz have been coming out slow in the first quarter, and it's because AK isn't in the line up. How Miles got that starting spot I'll never know. He'd be better coming off the bench.
