Also, i doubt the Nets would part with Williams (who has shown real potential) for CJ (who has not).<BR/><BR/>Jeff Foster is destined to be a Jazz man. I don't know if it will be a trade or free agency, but he has everything that the Jazz look for: tall, hard worker, good citizen, limited offensively.Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12570303484329212847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6661363167240819401.post-41838978698149574342008-07-11T11:35:00.000-07:002008-07-11T11:35:00.000-07:00Oh, one other thing.

Personally I think it's stupid -- if it improves your team, why not go for it? But the GMs hold fast to it. Can't see us cutting a deal with the Rockets.Pasty Gangstahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03443807466654920754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6661363167240819401.post-6773627493191337152008-07-11T11:29:00.000-07:002008-07-11T11:29:00.000-07:00Just for the record, although I would love Artest,...Just for the record, although I would love Artest, he and Jerry Sloan would wrestle to the death.

But let me relate a story. I graduated from Georgetown in 2001. My senior year we all got together and signed a card for Alonzo Mourning because he'd just had major kidney surgery. That was seven years ago, and I'm pretty sure he was in his 30s at the time. In other words, I'd prefer to not see him in a Jazz uniform.<BR/><BR/>Would love Foster (strong backup center for my fantasy team last year when O'Neal was out, which was basically every game) and would really love Iguodala, although I don't think we can get him. I also wouldn't mind trading the Booze because a) he sucked in the playoffs last year and b) I really like Paul.Pasty Gangstahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03443807466654920754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6661363167240819401.post-74674065193254785192008-07-11T07:52:00.000-07:002008-07-11T07:52:00.000-07:00As long as Artest doesn't get himself ejected ever...As long as Artest doesn't get himself ejected every 3rd game, I could live with it.<BR/><BR/>As for Charlotte... I think you have to go after Okafor instead of May. Don't you? Plus, you add another wing. So someone (hopefully Harpring) gets dealt elsewhere. Or maybe throw Harpring into the Artest deal.<BR/><BR/>Jackson would just give us another PG. And the team is "set", as they decided after letting Dee Brown leave even when they had a chance to match the offer. Because Jason Hart is a "solid PG".UtesFan89https://www.blogger.com/profile/06039217888264365459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6661363167240819401.post-33897653081717061582008-07-11T06:46:00.000-07:002008-07-11T06:46:00.000-07:00Man, I would love Artest in Utah.

But he still thinks he's an offensive weapon - whereas he should just try and be a rich man's Dennis Rodman.<BR/><BR/>I like the Foster trade. I also think it has a good shot - indiana has no use for him next year.<BR/><BR/>One more for you - how about AK/Miles to Houston for Battier/Bobby Jackson? Gets Miles back to Texas, gives the Jazz a great shooter/defender at the 3 spot and Jackson's deal is up after this year. Houston needs to do a makeover of that team. Do they roll the dice with Yao/McGrady/Kirilenko?Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12570303484329212847noreply@blogger.com
