    Jazz general manager Kevin O'Connor suggested Saturday he's spoken with multiple teams about trade possibilities and could make a deal as soon as Tuesday, but it's unknown if New Orleans is a team with which he's talked.

    Could we be involved in a multiple trade with Utah and New Orleans? Utah doesn't need a PG, hint, hint.

    It might be Boozer or AK47.
    No more floppers, one is enough.

    No Thanks for Jazzholes.

    Do you think it's Boozer?

    If one of the f'n Jazzholes gets traded to Houston, the world is over.

    If it is a 3-way, perhaps Boozer and Brooks go to New Orleans, Paul comes to Houston and T-Mac goes to Utah (basically). What a dream!

    Wow... That makes a ton of sense for everyone actually...

    (Hey, Do you guys think it might be a good time to trade for Paul Millsap in fantasy? Probably get him for nothing...) :)

    it's a trade that would send Boozer to New Orleans for David West I'm sure.

    West does piss me off like a Jazz forward.

    As much as i like CP3...i'm not quite sure how well he'd fit in RA's system.

    Don't the Jazz want to start Millsap though? I think Okafor would be more likely...

    Who cares? It's CHRIS PAUL, only one of, if not the single best point guards in the league. Screw systems and schemes if you can get a player on his level.

    would they really be moving away from their staple of outside shooting and good passing Bigs (Okur)? If that's the case then the whole Jazz system will get clogged in the paint with Omeka and Millsapp.

    Sounds about right. I think AK47 would also be included in the deal to either Houston or NO as well.

    Neither the Hornets nor the Rox need Boozer. Therefore since Utah's main objective is to unload him, I don't see a 3 way between Utah, NO & Rox. Utah, NO + ? or Utah, Rox + ? maybe.

    Malone and Ostertag worked pretty well...

    Boozer would be an expiring contract for NO. However, I was doing some "trading" on RealGM's trade checker and found it very difficult to include Chris Paul because he has a base year one contract.

    That's exactly the reason why teams that are supposed to be good in paper don't win...

    I bet this is just a very small minor trade with cap and picks. Why would new orlean wants boozer, when they got west? boozer could still jump boat this summer. Trading away CP3? unless he demands it, no way it would happen.

    Most that i can think of is AK47 to new orleans for Peja plus filters + picks. remember Utah is also trying to clear room in order to resign boozer as well.

    I would love to somehow obtain CJ Miles (6-6 shooting guard) and either Kosta Koufos or Kyrylo Fesenko (both 7-foot centers) from the Jazz. They would never part with Ronnie Brewer, but this would take away some of the Jazz young talent and bolster our weak spots.
