    After hearing Drew as the second coming of Drew, they are eager to aquire him after Stockton retires. Sources within claim to be targeting a great perimeter shooting PF Hanno Mottola in this years draft. To make Hanno even more desirable, he plays for Utah. The Jazz hope to continue their long tradition of the pick-and-roll when Stockton and Malone retire with Drew and Motola.


    Man...I have way too much free time after finals. :p

    Geez, that would be gross, but I could see it happening!!!

    Maybe we could trade Utah Drew+Walt+Scrub for Russell and Eisley. We could get two great players to solve our needs while fullfilling half of their dream ...

    ------------------
    now -WE- are the underdogs

    While I wouldn't consider Drew untouchable by any means, the Rox had better get a great offer, like Crisco suggested.

    How about Osterfat and Russell for Drew, Walt, Mack and a draft pick?

    I know it would never happen, but never underestimate the idiocy of the Jazz owner.

    Of everything that goes on in this world, you would think I would have heard of this. Afterall, it involves my beloved Utah Jazz.

    Folks, I haven't heard a word about this.

    That can't be a good thing....

    By the way, Larry Miller is NOT actively trying to sell the team! (I kinda wish he would though)

    How long was I telling you Shandon was coming before you believed me????

    ALL TRADES MUST INVOLVE WALT WILLIAMS!

    At this point nothing else will do . . .

    I'm gonna be down on Walt for a while.
    I'm sorely disappointed in him. . ..
    He'll get better but i doubt to a point
    to over come the crap he doing now.

    With J.Vaughn and Eisley why would they want another pg? For his shooting yes , but I doubt the Jazzholes and ROCKS trade

    ------------------
    We would like to get rookie Francis on the break for some easy scoops in the first quarter...

    If the Jazz trade Bryon Russell, they are fools. And Eisley too for who? Drew, Walt and a scrub - I know this is not a real rumor.

    If it were true, I would think the Rockets would jump without a second thought.

    Hey, maybe they actually want another undersized, white shooting guard after Hornacek leaves.

    How about Drew for Padgett? I've got to admit, I don't know anything about him except that he's 6'9" and 240 pounds. Is he a small forward or a power forward? Don't watch much college ball, so I didn't see him play at Kentucky.

    This is a joke, don't take it seriously. After hearing so many bbs posters claim Drew as the next Stockton, I thought this would be very funny. I checked the potential draftees and Matolla stood as a the best perimeter shooting PF. Obviously the Jazz will be screwed when Stockton and Malone retired. Jenna can verify this. I thought maybe they would want to continue their tradition. Becuase Drew is suppose to be the next Stockton from what u guys claim and Matolla has a similar game like Malone, I put 2 and 2 together. You have to admit it actually made sense in a weird kinda way. ANYWAYS, enough about that Jazz, lets talk about the Rockets now.
