Boozer: I want to be in Utah

[Batu7]

He just wants money, wasn't it the main reason why he signed with us in the first place?

What's the real scoop on Boozer's defense? One on one, he certainly outplayed Gasol in the series. In fact, he nearly always outscored his opposite number. The problem people seem to have with Booze's defense is that he doesn't cover everybody else's man as well as his own. Why is every other defender on the team responsible for just their own man ... and not even that when they are screened ... but Boozer is responsible for defending everybody? Just curious.

Do you watch a lot of Jazz games? There are intangibles. Things that you can't really see that piss me off personally. His body language just looks like he doesn't give a ****. It's not about "covering everyone elses man" it's about denying scrub ass guards from coming in your lane and getting easy lay ups, it's about showing for more than a second on a high screen. I don't know if it's intelligence or lack of effort anymore, but the dude just sucks. I can't remember how many times I've facepalmed in awe watching booz yell real loud at some 6 foot guard dropping a teabag in his face.
