Why WOULDN’T Boozer play for the W’s? There’s alot of talent here, and every commentator agrees that we’re a solid post player away from being a contender. Boozer would give the W’s a huge lift, and he’s shown that playing for a winner is NOT his main priority. He left Cleveland and LaBron to play in Utah.. Its obviously not just about playing for the best team with him.

The trade makes great sense for Utah.. they don’t care so much about being under the cap, they have alot of pieces in place to win right now. They have a leader in Deron Williams, a budding star power forward in Millsap, a solid center in Okur.. and several role players. What they need is a true wing, who can score an slash to the basket. Magette is a perfect fit for them, especially with Kirilenko out for a few weeks.

We could resign Boozer and stay under the cap with Magette’s contract out of the way couldn’t we? (we have to allow the possibility of Crawford leaving too, which would put us way under the cap)

If the Cable guy didn’t pick up the gig from Al he would fit right in..

Never saw a more sarcastic disingenuous person than Nellie…anyone who can say that they are better than he expected has a secret agenda he4 is working on…like gettting fired again and picking up a few more years for free.

Rowell gave him the contract extension so he had someone who knew something about the game while he was tossing Chris out the door…Cohan didn’t even realize he was getting hosed by Rowell

I like what you posted so far. The only thing we may differ on is…Are you a ROWELL fan? I am sooo anti-ROWELL and blame that boy for almost everything that has gone wrong with the team besides the moped thing.

Trey, tell me your not a supporter of Rowell?

I would figure more people would be upset that he threw Mullin, Rowell, and everyone on the team under the bus when he said he couldn’t convince people in the preseason that this team sucked and he knew this was a bad team from the start. And unlike his Ellis comment, which was very coachlike, this was said in a “I was right, I was right” tone. Makes you wonder if his rotation is centered around proving everyone wrong and proving this is a bad team and needs major change.

I agree with him, but I can definitely see how it would piss a lot of people off and fuel their arguments that he is bad for the development of this team.

We’re over the cap so we can’t sign him as a free agent. And who is going to take Jackson and/or Maggette’s 5yr contracts for an expiring contract to get below the cap? And if a miracle happens and we do get under the cap, signing him still takes us to the luxury tax, which is a Rowell no-no.

And even if we get around all that – what makes you think Boozer wants to play here? Did he pour his heart out to you and tell you how much he wants to play for a 30 win team that has terrible ownership and a 500 hundred year old coach?

Yeah. Let’s get Boozer. And Lebron, Kobe, and Chris Paul while we’re at it. We’d be really good then.

We’re moving the kids for the Beast.
