I thought Ninjas wouldn't let people get into their heads Lingety... what's up with that. Do I need to report you to the other nerds who play ninja dress up in the park on 5th west and 5th north in Provo that you've lost a step? They'll be mighty disappointed in you... hopefully they still let you play dungeons and dragons with them.

Sorry Fus, but you're wrong. Araujo is incompetent. He doesn't even belong in the development league. This is the most idiotic basketball move the Jazz have ever made.

Yes, Luther Wright was a mistake. However, Luther Wright had more skills than Araujo, but he was also nuts. If he would have had the sense to take his medication, he may have at least done something.
I don't dislike Araujo at all. I'm sure he's a good guy, but he got by in college and JC because he was so much physically bigger and stronger than anyone else.

True, I tend to be a bit hard on Araujo when it comes to skills. I can only go by what he's done while in the NBA.
As for Wright, that was a sad, sad situatiuon. The guy is mentally ill and refused to take the medication from which he would have benefitted. I'll also admit that I'm comparing foresight of Araujo to hindsight of Wright when it comes to how big a mistake the Jazz have made. I need to wait until after Araujo is no longer with the Jazz. Of course then, I could say "Told you so."

I told you why it's a good trade, the jazz got money, a roster spot and traded a dude that was not going to ever work out here, for a guy who will work hard, will do what Sloan says, and has the talent to be a 9-6 guy which is all the Jazz need. If he doens't work out this year who cares? I believe his contract is up at the end of the season and the Jazz are out nothing. Hump wasn't going to be a player here, he is a tweener, he doesn't shoot well enough, and he plays bad defense. At least with Rafa you will have a guy who will eat glass if you ask him. |

Rafa is a good pick up because he is a local kid that can do no wrong in the eyes of the fans.

It's a crap for crap trade. Maybe the Jazz Brass will be able to squeeze something out of it, but I'm not counting on it.
