LEHI — As the wind swirled here Saturday, so did Carlos Boozer trade rumors.

The Jazz actively are trying to trade Boozer, a two-time NBA All-Star who
recently — much to the surprise of some with the franchise — opted in for
the last year and final $12.65 million of his current contract.

"You don't know what the case is right now, so I'm not going to speculate on
anything," said point guard Deron Williams, who was hosting a charity golf
tournament at Thanksgiving Point in Lehi.

"If that happens that he's not here, then we can talk about it," Williams
added. "But right now he's on the Jazz, he's our teammate. We'll talk about
everything when it happens, if it happens."

Though a definitely discussed three-team deal that perhaps could have sent
Boozer to Chicago and brought Bulls forward Tyrus Thomas to Utah collapsed
Friday, the Jazz still are talking trade with multiple teams.

Conversations have been spurred partly by Utah's efforts to shed salary so
they can comfortably retain backup power forward Paul Millsap, who on Friday
— after the three-team deal that would also have involved Portland crumbled
— signed a four-year, $32 million offer sheet from the Trail Blazers.

Chicago, Miami, Detroit and New York all reportedly remain among possible
destinations for Boozer, though the Contra Costa (Calif.) Times newspaper on
Saturday reported that Golden State's supposed interest in Utah's starting
power forward is not to be believed.

Portland, one NBA agent said Saturday, no longer is interested in
facilitating a Boozer trade — and, for all practical purposes, can't because
its team payroll salary cap space currently is tied up while Utah decides
whether to match on Millsap.

The same agent said Oklahoma City, which also has ample cap space, doesn't
want to help the Jazz by becoming part of a multi-team deal either.

"There's a lot, obviously, and for all the right reasons," Jazz general
manager Kevin O'Connor said when asked Saturday about how much telephone
conversations he's had with other teams in recent days. "They look at us and
say, 'Maybe we can get so-and-so, maybe we can get so-and-so.' We're
listening, and talking to everybody. There's a frenzy right now about it, and
I think it will slow down a little bit."

Asked to respond to an ESPN.com report suggesting Boozer has directly been
told he is not part of the Jazz's long-term plans and that Boozer answered by
saying, "I want you guys to move me," Jazz front-office members neither
confirmed nor denied.

"I'm going to let Kevin address that one," team president Randy Rigby said.

"I don't want to go there. That's not fair to Carlos, and that's not fair to
us," O'Connor added. "But what I would say is that those two (Boozer and
Millsap) have played together last year and the year before, and played
fairly well together."

Rigby, too, left the door ajar — even if ever so slightly — to the
possibility that both Boozer and Millsap would be back for the start of next
season.

"It's too early for us to really say that," the Jazz president said. "(But) I
could see a possibility that they would be coming back.

"I mean, we're going to have to really analyze and see whether it's going to
be for the betterment of this organization, short-term, long-term, from an
on-court position, as well as front a financial position. And we're gonna
have to make some tough decisions."

→ ablackangel:Bayless照樣要坐在板凳上 不如讓C/P值高的Blake坐板凳
推 feelike:同意樓上，Hinrich是遞減合約，換來拓荒者就不會輕易在丟
→ feelike:出去，加上又是個好用的球員，Bayless還是沒有太多時間成
→ feelike:長，再好的潛力一直放在板凳上也是會耗光的，倒不如Blake
→ feelike:已經成型，拿來當替補控球，明年薪資也有操作空間
推 dakkk:霧煞煞  到底要不要三方交易呀
推 qoomilk:我要科科韓，外加小王子
推 Aldridge:丟Bayless換CK不是聰明的決定 CK是Blake的防守升級版 意

→ gordon0720:他防守算是A級的組織雖然不到CP3那種等級不過也不差了
→ gordon0720:而且其實他也會切入，只是不是速度型的，不要因為印象
→ gordon0720:中他不是速度型的控衛就對他的切入懷疑，Billups和
→ gordon0720:Calderon會不會切入?他大概型比較像這種，說是Blake
→ gordon0720:強化版實在不敢茍同，Blake除了三分外其他都不像
