    This would fill a huge hole for them if Okur won't be back for a while. I'm still not convinced Big Al can return to form after his knee injury.

    The Suns and Jazz lost 2 big players to come right back to acquire two more big time players.

    Good move by the Jazz, they stole him from Dallas but not sure how he will work in the pick and role with Williams.

    Regardless if hes not 100% remember.. were talking about Al Jefferson here. He goes for 30 and 20 every night against the Rockets. We match up with the jazz alot in the playoffs.. great.

    That's because Yao's guarding him. Complete mismatch. Hopefully he isn't playing C in Utah.

    Rockets need to fill the backup C position, I hope Morey comes with something.

    Great. Just great. The guy we want could go to our rival and we could again have to suffer being number nine and being out of the playoffs when we would be in the playoffs if we were in the East.

    With Sloan as a coach and Williams getting the him ball he will have a big year if he's healthy. Good for him.

    I think what will end up happening will be Scola and his new Apprentice Patterson at PF and (until further notice) Yao, then Hill then Hayes at C

    Cleveland needs to steal Al Jeff from Dallas, Utah, then move the Knicks down in the standings.
