    The Rockets won't get any better at all this offseason, they'll get worse. They will try to use their cap space on Webber, who won't sign with Houston. In the process the Rockets will lose Shandon Anderson, Maurice Taylor and Hakeem Olajuwon to free agency. They will then be left with a worse lineup and have a few draft picks, which they will waste as they did last year (#9 for Jason Collier???). In the meantime we will take Anderson from you, as well as trade Marshall/Russell to NJ for Van Horn/Aaron Williams. We will also sign Michael Doleac (another great player that played in Utah in college), who the Magic look to get rid of to clear cap space. By the end of all this it looks like this...

    Utah vs Rockets
    C: OP/Ostertag vs Cato/Collier
    PF: Malone/Williams vs Mo T./KT
    SF: Van Horn/Manning vs Wiz/Langhi
    SG: Shandon/Starks/Stevenson vs Mobley
    PG: Stockton/Vaughn vs Francis/Norris

    WOW! Two decent centers versus two very crappy centers. The best Power forward of all time and a very capale backup against two undersized pfs that can't rebound. At SF, dang, our backup SF is ten times better than your starting SF! Then the three S's at SG against Mobley the ballhog! Ha! Then the best pure point guard of all time and a very good backup versus Francis and Norris. Thats the only matchup we don't have a clear advantage on! Remember these words: The 2002 NBA Champions...The Utah Jazz!

    What I love about this site is that even in the darkest, dullest moments... one of our own poses as a dumbass Jazz fan and posts the most inane drivel.

    Pretty funny whoever you are!!!

    Even more ironic, is that it puts us somewhere around 25 mill under the cap for the next offseason. Neato.

    I suppose we traded all of our first rounders for a 2nd rounder we cut at training camp, right?

    I like how he claims that the Jazz will sign Michael Doleac, but then completely forgets about that, and leaves him out of the rotation completely.

    Or did the Jazz spend money getting a guy in FA that they plan on benching permanently?

    This is the funniest thing I have ever read. Wow, Jazz fans are really funny. What a joke.

    2002 Draft
    With the first pick the 20 and 62 Utah Jazz pick Yao Ming out of China.

    Well you were right on that Achebe. <a href="http://bbs.clutchcity.net/ubb-cgi/ubbmisc.cgi?action=getbio&UserName=SteveFrancis3">SteveFrancis3</a> was the culprit.
