What would be a good deal for...

[Dunthreevy]

Yup, blame the guy who's agent steered him towards a 5 year $60 million deal instead of a 3 year $15 million deal.


The guy's character obviously is awful, and he's a waste of a human being. I see you know him personally, and I will take your word on it. The works of his charity, friendliness, and good works shall be immediately disregarded on your mere word, sir.

Don't forget that BS excuse about his son needing treatment for sickle-cell anemia and undergoing bone marrow transplants either Scoot. Boozer is such a bum

Such comments just confirm my opinion of many among the thirty-something generation in our society. "Show me the money." I came from a generation where your word and a handshake were your bond (and if I remember clearly, Boozer had already tendered his word and shook hands on a deal with the former owner of the Cavs.) Sorry to be so naive--but if that's being naive, the world would be a much better place if more people--including Boozer--were naive like that. Actions like his and the fact that he finds ready apologists for being a lying jerk are symptomatic of a serious sickness, a moral rot, in our society.

Like I said, we've got a group of good guys who have developed a nice chemistry and who show a lot of promise for the future. You're entitled to your opinions, but I'd personally rather not see this guy who has shown by his actions that he has no allegiance to anything but himself potentially jeopardize that.

Please take a step down off your soap box. Do it slowly, as I wouldn't want you to fall and injure yourself.

We're all entitled to our opinions, and I'm going to leave it at that.

The reason why I'd be reluctant to make moves for any player outside of LeBron, Wade, CP3, Howard, or Lobe, is because our chemistry is as good as it's been in a while.

Has there ever been a negative report about Boozer in the locker room with his teammates? Seriously? He wouldn't do anything to our chemistry. He's not an unlikeable guy. He made a decision that 90% of the guys in the NBA (and on this board) would have made if faced with the same situation.
