The Utah Jazz | as seen by Basketball John

All things Utah Jazz - 2006-2007 Northwest Division Champs

No Pete for the Jazz?

July 10th, 2007 by Basketball John

Well, we all know that Morris Peterson was in town on Sunday to meet with the Jazz, but we’ve heard nothing come from it.  Some thought we might get a deal announced yesterday.  And from what Peterson stated in the Toronto Sun, he wants to be in Utah.  But with no deal announced yet, there’s sure to be speculation that he’s not coming to Utah.  Maybe they’re waiting on a deal for Giricek to be done?  I would think they would have to be sure he’s gone before bringing Peterson in.  Otherwise, they’d be in a bad situation with 4-5 SGs. 

Another reason that this might not be done is if Brewer impresses the staff enough that they don’t think they need to bring anyone else in.  The only thing with Brewer would be his lack of a three-point shot.  Also, CJ won’t be at the revue.  He could be going elsewhere maybe for more floor time.  There are a lot of factors that go into these things which is why it’s crazy to speculate because these things hinge on so much.
