Jazz contact Turiaf to begin talks

Our fan favorite has been rumored to lure the interest from the Utah Jazz. Well as of this morning, the Jazz have begun talks with Ronny and his agent…

SLTribune: The Jazz contacted agent Mark Bartelstein about L.A. Lakers forward Ronny Turiaf.

Bartelstein added that he was planning to talk with O’Connor later Tuesday.

    Here is an ironic excerpt from the article:

    The Jazz contacted agent Mark Bartelstein about L.A. Lakers forward Ronny Turiaf and Memphis center Kwame Brown while also talking about Dallas’ Devean George…

    Whoever team gets him is very lucky. Turiaf: Great guy.

  15. Whatsa says:

    Turiaf is a very high energy athlete who brings enthusiasm to basketball and I bet he’s a very great friend. I think the Lakers need someone like Turiaf to keep them in a positive mood.

    Unless we can get Carlos Boozer or something lol.

  16. daboss1849 says:

    Turiaf actually would be a great fit with them.

  17. T-Dub says:

    Why is everyone so enamored with Sasha and Ronny. They are career backup players! If they want to walk, let them walk. They wont be missed. there’s an entire league full of average NBA players!!! They can and will be replaced!!

  18. kPoAbUe says:

    It was nice to have u Ronny we will never forget u. Good luck someplace else.

  19. Sako says:

    NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! NO NO NO!!!

  20. yellowpurplefever says:

    Again these freaking agents are behind it, to get more, more, more $$$. I think Ronny is loyal enough to be back with the Lakers. Either way Ronny is a great guy where ever he lands, hopefully in LA LA LAND

  22. lakerferlife7 says:

    ha wow let him go..let sasha go 2….bring in brent barry and artest…..

  23. DCLAKER says:

    HELL NO,RONNY DON’T GO!

  24. kobe4ever says:

    Do you guys remember when Ronny had that serious heart condition I believe after coming out of Arizona. The Lakers took a chance on him, took care of him and helped him out b/c he was getting paid zero dollars. They spent their own money on a prospect to make sure he was healthy and so that he can continue to live his life. He slowly developed into a good contributor off the bench, and all of this he owes to the Lakers organization. I am sorry but if Ronny leaves then there is no loyalty @ all. I know he’s entitled to make the most money he can, but when he was a broke @$$ kid that was a low draft choice, the Lakers took care of him like family. Break that bond and he can go to the f u ckin Jazz and we’ll destroy him when we see him.
