Let the NBA-D league in scoring. You figure he should have a place on the roster next season.

What position does he play.

If he plays the 1, where would that leave Ronny Price? I like Price.

I think you ship Price because he has more value.

If he plays the 2, I don't think he has a chance ahead of Korver and Brewer.

Jazz need a 5 in a bad way. Tall, long, athletic, play defense, rebound. Jazz need a Tyson Chandler.

He plays the 2.

2/3. Played college ball at Rice (hey, last time I checked, isn't that in Texas?)

Players on the Jazz nicknamed him "The Kobe of the D-League".

An interesting story for the Jazz this off-season will be what the Jazz do with their wings. Brewer, Korver, Miles, Harpring, Kirilenko and Almond all can play the 2/3. Harp is on his last legs, so hopefully his minutes decline this upcoming year. I think the Jazz need to move one of those guys to get a 5 who can play some defense. The Free Agent crop this year is slim, the only realistic guy who might fit is Diop, and who knows if we even sign a free agent with the roster basically being full as is.

It'll be interesting to see who they target in the draft as well. In all likelihood, it'll be a boring summer and nothing exciting will happen.

Jazz have to make a move to counter Gasol, Odom. I would be willing to possibly ship Boozer or Okur (or both).
