Im sorry but this article is ganna be really short but i have a question, Like we all know Utah Jazz signed DeMarre Carroll!! I like to call him D.C, but anyways did he dress for the game against the Wizards? Are we waiting till he knows the system really good or whats the deal, when will he suit up? Im excited to watch him, it looks like hes getting along good with the team from what ive seen! Thoughts?

  1. I heard he was brought in as an “insurance policy” in case anyone got hurt…according to Jazz team president Randy Rigby. I’m not sure if or when we will see him actually suit up this season.

  2. kcjazzfan says:

    Can my Mizzou Tigers borrow him again for the NCAA tournament? I’m sure he’d get some playing time with his old alma mater :D

    from what i was reading is they wanted to draft this guy when he was coming to the NBA but he was drafted by another team and they had a chance to pick him up so they took it … it is a insurance policy but i was also reading that they are giving him a chance to learn the system before the do a whole lot with him… you can only have 13 people suit up for a game so the jazz would have to have someone else sit out to alow him a chance to play

  4. I am guessing it’s a combination of him being insurance and learning the system. But I also think it gives us more flexibility to wheel and deal before the trade deadline.

  5. KCJones says:

    Yeah, Bracken. More like he’s an insurance policy in case someone (CJ! Howard!) gets traded.

  6. I would agree with the trade scenario. I would almost think that most of the GM have been talking trades even though they can not trade almost half their rosters. So maybe KOC has a trade in place for the March 1st date to come around. He just needed a forward to take the place of whoever is leaving. But I would expect something to happen before the deadline.

  7. Like I said in anther post, im not surprised when the jazz don’t trade players because koc doesn’t do to many of them. There is a reason he signed carrol though and it wasn’t to spend time on the pine wearing a shirt and, tie he brought him into play. Which means some one has to go, sorry cj and cj fans but, that’s who it is. Reason why I say that is hayward isn’t going anywhere unless we get someone great for him. Howard isn’t going anywhere because he brings maturity to your team and, he just got here as well. Cj has been giving his chances to prove himself and he never put it all together. He is also younger and you can get more for him. Makes me think who else is going though, I mean rumors have been going around harris. Corbin has backed up his guard though and, we do need to get rid of size I would say its a big that is leaving or maybe all three are gone.
