The Utah Jazz forward is known to the 1.3 billion people in China as "Fan Gu Zai," which, loosely translated, means "Betrayal Skull Dude."

I read that and thought it was pretty funny as well. I don't really care about the Boozer situation anymore though personally

Saw that on a number of sites.
I guess the Chinese people are pretty wise and can cut through the PR front that Boo$er puts up.
One more season and Utah will get Boo$erd.
