If you play a sport where your skin is exposed, and you have light skin and all people can see is tattoo all over the place, then it's very possible that you look foolish.
Same here, but he is the exception. He's not at a stockton, malone HATE level. More like a Shandon Anderson level.
I don't think they just gave him away. They did get a protected first rounder from Memphis which could be a lottery pick as soon as 2011. Remember, Brewer was the 14th pick in the 2006 draft so the Jazz will get a similar pick within the next couple years, plus they weren't going to resign him this offseason anyway. The Jazz have a log jam at the 2/3 spots so this solves that problem. They'll sign Matthews in the summer for a lot cheaper and he pretty much does everything as good as Brewer did. It was actually a smart move by the Jazz.
Fair points all around. That said, smart move is debatable, as Deron William's reaction proves. Basically, they did something that certainly doesn't make them better, likely makes them worse (not as deep) and they won't see return on for at least 2 offseasons. I'll agree I was too harsh on them earlier, but it seems like a lateral move. The Jazz will continue to be good, but never be great.
oh ok, i'm not watching the actual game, just flipped to gametime on nbatv for a bit and that's all i saw before they changed it.
so theres still hope for him after all. morey needs to use his jedi mind tricks to make the jazz give us Williams before he falls to deep into the darkside
Shows the preparation and focus of players. Some just look game to game and focus on their team not concerned of the outside. When alot of people could see this move coming. If Deron Williams was out the rest of the season and Jazz struggling to contend, they'da probably shipped out even more players along with Brewer. I think Chris Paul is the guttier, feistier player of the 2, which makes Paul a little better. Deron is just a little bit nicer, could use that bit more edge to him to make him the best.
Nash is still up there too, isn't he? He still has it. The great thing is I could see Brooks eventually encroaching on the top 3 as he fleshes out his game.
Deron carries the ball a lot. Plus he plays for the Jazz, this makes him less of a player by default. So i'd go with Chris Paul....... Although Paul flops a lot, you'd think he had Jerry Sloan as a coach.
