With Ak at the 4 . Can't have enough 4's on the floor. Millsap playing some at the 3 has always seemed obvious to me. Jefferson at the 5 is the problem as would Okur be assuming he plays again.

I actually wanted to see a frontcourt lineup of SF- Millsap / PF- Favors / C- Jefferson for awhile now.
People question Millsap's ability to play the 3 but I think he can do it. Most of the time he's been playing at the highpost or upper wing area when he catches the ball. Dude has great handles, post moves and a sweet fadeaway.

I wouldn't mind it, but it would have to be used at times, not as a starting line-up to me, and if it was to be a starting line-up, Paul would have to lose 20 pounds to get into shape to guard SF's, I'd love to see Paul be a SF/PF that can be a great Sixth Man off the bench.

Regardless of his weight he can probably guard the position better than anyone they have other than the always fragile AK who could be gone. Artest is huge and he's an idiot.
Can't see bringing your best player off the bench either.

Well, I know Brian T. Smith of the SLTrib is an idiot, but he seems to think Corbin has something against Al now, and has been calling him out for his frustration and what not, could this mean he could be gone soon or is these media members idiots? Time well tell.
A lot of people on Twitter were talking about Jefferson's frustration/benching tonight against the Wizards.

Well, looks like the situation is that the media members (IE: Salt Lake Tribune & Brian T. Smith) are the ones looking like total fools here, sorry to get your hopes up Xiao Yao You, but Al isn't frustrated at all with Corbin, typical reporting.

Al might not be frustrated but Corbin might be. He did bench him.

With that logic, Millsap might be mad at Corbin too.

Millsap was on the floor. Paul could have reason to be mad at everyone as underappreciated as he is.

Reserve Kyrylo Fesenko(notes) will make only his third career start and first of the season
Friday night when the Utah Jazz face the Los Angeles Lakers.
A loss to the Lakers (54-20) officially eliminates the Jazz (36-39) from the playoffs and would make them the first team in history to start 15-5 and 27-13 and not qualify for postseason play, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
The Jazz already have ruled out starters Andrei Kirilenko(notes), Raja Bell
(notes) and Devin Harris
(notes) because of
assorted leg injures as well as reserve guard Ronnie Price(notes).
Coach Ty Corbin said he decided to start the 7-1 Fesenko because he matches up better against Andrew Bynum(notes). Al Jefferson
(notes) moves to the power forward spot and Paul Millsap
(notes) to small forward, with
C.J. Miles(notes) and Earl Watson
(notes) starting at guard.
Talk about an epic collapse.

It's sad that I'm agreeing with Xiao Yao You for once, but I think we need to trade Jefferson, isn't going to happen, but we need someone with size that isn't Fesenko and can actually play defense.
