Can't help but notice scoring and rebounding by power forward Mehmet Okur of Utah. When Boozer gets back, what will Utah do (move one to center perhaps?).

Okur is having a great year so far but it is very early.I would love to see him continue playing at this high of a level.Utah is the perfect fit for him and if they keep his minutes up,he could make the All Star Team.That would be great.Kirelenko is also playing really good.He is 3rd in the NBA in shot blocking.

Memo wasn't consistent in Detroit, but LB didn't like him, either.
At one point Ben Wallace took to wearing Memo's warmup in
interviews to protest his lack of PT.

GreatLake is right, Memo played pretty good in spots in Detroit until LB banished him to the bench. I can't say the results were bad for the Pistons but Utah is a much better fit for him. He is a natural point scorer and pretty aggressive for a European, althogh he is a Turk and if you know anything about them, well...aggressiveness is not a problem.
