Jimmy thinks it may be hard to keep Booz if Miami throws equivalent money at him.

Jeff Hornacek should be a full-time Jazz coach. Do not let Phoenix get him. Good luck with the surgery recovery and the off season Paul. I appreciate your toughness and your intensity. Thanks all for a great season!

Miami really wants to get Derrick Rose in the Draft because they need a point guard. If they some how get the number 2 pick and Rose goes first lets trade Boozer to them for the right to draft Beasley. Let Milsap start until beasley can break through and become a star in the league! I know this is unlikely and dreaming but thats what us fans are good for.

The Jazz should just skip right over this trade for the upcoming season..

Let's just keep with what we have and not screw it up!!!!

It will be a blast to watch them next year!!!

I hope they just stomp the Lakers and the dang Nuggets!!!!

Jazz better do something this summer.

They've rode this horse and they can't poosibly win a championship, ever. other teams are getting better too, staying the course is the same as falling behind.

Which means rather than keep beatin a dead horse, you get a new one.

I mean, what is the point of doing this again next year and losing again next year in the playoffs and the year after that and the year after that and on and on.

Just find a way, like the lakers, of putting together a championship team.

Which mean getting rid of the players that can't make it happen, and getting the right players who can make it happen.

Jazzsmack,

I agree. I think Booze needs to be traded for someone bigger, quicker, and a better defender. The question is who?

Let Miami have Boozer. Lets keep Milsap. The man plays with Heart and he is just getting better. Good luck Paul with the surgery and recovery. You deserve the starting position. Lets get R-dun.

Jazz should only look to trade boozer if the right deal comes along, personally i would to see the Jazz Trade Boozer to Milwaukee for Andrew Bogut and charlie vilinueva
