Booz is only 28?! Damn, I thought he was like 32 or something. He looks it.

I don’t care where Boozer plays as long as it isn’t in the 801 next year!

I don’t care where Boozer goes, he’s a trader to us here in Utah. All we care is that he plays well the rest of the season then gets the hell out and brings someone equally good in to take his place. There is no room for the immaturity and selfish behavior Boozer has brought here in Utah, that’s not what the Jazz are about. On the plus side with him playing so great maybe we can blindside him for an allstar PF and a some more defense.

Howard needs someone that will actually take heat off of him in the paint. Boozer isn’t that guy.

Defenders know that he’s looking for a mid range jumper and is more of a shoot first guy than attack the basket guy.

SVG refuses to play Bass with Howard that I can tell, so what’s the difference if they brought in someone else they can’t mix into the team?

The Magic would finally have an actual post-up scorer, but would have to drop a long bomber from the starting unit.
They really don’t need to make dramatic changes given they’re already a legitimate contender. As an All-Star and USA player I highly doubt he’ll be accepting anywhere near mid-level money, Patrick. At least one team will offer him what he wants.

I think he would be a GREAT fit because Howard will be all the defense and Boozer can provide all the offense..

IMO Boozers shortcoming is ACTUAL defense.. Help side, man2man, etc. but dude is a good rebounder so between him and Dwight they would be good on the glass and like i said compliment each others shortcomings.. Booz being a face up post player would be perfect for Howard because he wouldnt clog up the lane so much..

I truly hope Chicago does not get Boozer. I know we need a low post presence just as much as Jon Gosselin needs the shit kicked out of him but Boozer is not the answer. The Bulls need an honest, selfless, mature role model. Somebody who can lead by his actions and vocally. The latter of which Rose has not taken to task as of yet. I’d much rather have Bosh instead of Boozer if there are no other suitable options.

Boozer would be a great compliment to Howard. He can shoot and he doesn’t have to anchor in the paint. If he would accept closer to the mid level it would be a steal for Orlando, otherwise it wouldn’t be worth it. Having a player with post moves on the team would free Howard up to be a beast on the weak side glass.
