Jazz Fans: The old days are over.

Published on April 30, 2009 by . Filed under: sports

Dear Jazz Fans,

Living in Utah and being a regular local sports talk radio listener, I have to make the following comment to all of you collectively: The old days are over. Get over it. Boozer, Memo, Kirelenko, DWill, and Co. are modern players. They know that the NBA and their career are a business. The decisions they have to make are ones that will best benefit their business…themselves.

Recently all of the talk has been about Boozer and his contract. Boozer is not a bad guy, he is a businessman. He is going to make the decision that is best for his business. The local fan base is stuck on the old days of Stockton and Malone. Those days are over. Players no longer play their entire careers for one team. They don’t sign smaller contracts so that the team can sign new rookies and make new free agent acquisitions.

When Boozer opts out of his contract, don’t be too upset. It’s actually a good thing. He’s making max money this year and the Jazz can’t afford to keep paying him and still be able to re-sign some of the other free agents. Let Boozer go chase his money, it’s best that way. As a matter of fact, let’s gamble a little this year. Shop Kiralenko, re-sign Memo and Korver. Let Millsap walk too, unless you can match a contract for under $4 million a year, if not, let him go and head to the free agent market. You can also push the draft and trade up to pick up a nice big man. Defensive big men in the NBA are expensive, it’s best to go get one in the draft.
