Swatguy Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 (edited) I believe he is the single attainable improvement most needed. Carlos will bring post presence in every sense. I am surprised no one or many have dialed that number. What gives? Edited May 20, 2009 by Swatguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am surprised no one or many have dialed that number. What gives? Boozer ain't signing for less than 12 million, in my opinion. Probably in the 5yr - 65 to 75 million range.

I see no problem with that. Pay it. He is an upgrade over JSmith or anyone else not named Joe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlos will bring post presence in every sense. I am surprised no one or many have dialed that number. What gives? Boozer is undersized and not as athletic as Smoove. Not a good mix.

coachx Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 No thanks. He has not proven he is the same Boozer since the injury. Would hate to get stuck in a 2nd Elton Brand situation by signing damaged goods to a new contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are you coming up with this money? Check out the stickied cap thread describing our cap situation. We don't have $12M to spend on anyone.

MrRyda Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Booze is not nearly as good as Smoove IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swatguy Posted May 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 Well, forget about it. He will not be a Hawk and JSmith will not be moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchman Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 upgrade over josh smith nope... Plus Boozer will be 28 this year.. Pass.... A guy who averages 20/10 is not an improvement over 15/7? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EazyRoc Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) Just imagine what Smith's numbers would be like if he was coached by Jerry Sloan. Edited May 21, 2009 by EazyRoc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchman Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 Just imagine what Smith's numbers would be like if he was coached by Jerry Sloan. Sloan wouldn't put up with the stupid long range jumpers or the whining at the refs. He'd probably get a lot more bench time if Sloan was the coach.

HawksFan87 Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 A guy who averages 20/10 is not an improvement over 15/7? nope ... Plus AL is our Carlos Boozer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 nope ... Plus AL is our Carlos Boozer... False ... and false. Boozer is superior to Smoove, at least statistically and that cannot be argued. Al is even farther away from being equal to Boozer than Smoove and it's not even close there. I love Al but Boozer is a far better player. Considering his age and injury history I wouldn't trade either Smoove or Al for him though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchman Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 nope ... Plus AL is our Carlos Boozer... Your blind loyalty is commendable (I suppose) but other than Boozer's injury history, I cannot imagine why any team would rather have 15/7.

Frenzy Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 Sloan wouldn't put up with the stupid long range jumpers or the whining at the refs. He'd probably get a lot more bench time if Sloan was the coach. Sloan wouldnt have plays where josh is beyond the 3 pt line....kind of hard to shoot from there if your not there.Josh Smith is always beyond or near the 3 pt line in our offense unless hes posting up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
