The Jazz considered a number of deals for Paul Millsap at the trade deadline, according to sources. The Pacers and Clippers were interested.

One source said the Jazz and Clippers discussed deal that would've swapped Paul Millsap and DeMarre Carroll for Eric Bledsoe and Lamar Odom.

Glad they didn't make a move on that Indy deal.

But if that LAC deal is accurate, there's only one possibility: LAC balked. Right? RIGHT?!?!

Not watching, but it appears the Jazz starters are putting another show.

I love this Corbin experiment with Marvin playing the four rather than playing Kanter and Favors more minutes.

Best part of that game was Murphy getting in and launching yet another air ball. He even had a shot from the wing on a dead ball that sailed over the rim and hit backboard on the other side. That guy has a bright future.

Foye entered tonight shooting 23% from the field the previous 6 games. Remarkably he actually shot worse than that against NY (2-10).

Points per shot in March: Burks - 1.32, Foye - 0.63

Coming back from a knee injury, 4th year in the last 5 where he's missed a number of games because of injury, 5th straight year of declining scoring, due $14mm next year. Give up a promising young talent to get that? Yeah, no thanks.

Enes knocked down his first 3pter? Would have liked to see that.

19. Marvin Williams: two years, $15.8 million His sparkling 10.03 PER ranks him 285th in the league, just ahead of Kevin Seraphin, Joel Anthony and Kendrick Perkins. Hey, at least he's still 43 spots ahead of Jan Vesely. At some point before I die, I want to know why Kevin O'Connor flipped Devin Harris's expiring deal for two years of Marvin Williams. There has to be an answer that doesn't involve the words "nude photos" and "or else."

That is hilarious. With that information, I would guess that 8 out of his last 10 shots have either been air balls or shots that hit the backboard (accidentally) before anything else.

Looks like it could be worse, we could still have Deron.
