Start Boozer at Center

Post #1 » by **StocktonShorts** » Tue Jan 19, 2010 9:32 pm

It may sound crazy, but even undersized I think Boozer actually plays better defense against the fives of the league than he does the fours. He's currently logging several minutes each game at center, so why not start him there and put AK or Millsap at the 4?

Thoughts?

i totally agree. Memo should be coming off the bench at the 5. His defense is putrid and the couple of threes he hits a game are not worth the lack of D and offensive rebonding. I think AK would have to start however, I see it too clogged with boozer and Sap in the half court offense.

ill do anything to get memo less playing time. having Okur out on the court hurts us more than it helps us.

I've always thought there was room for another Wes Unseld kind of center in the league and the position suits Carlos well.

I agree completely. Millsap/AK would all be good along side Boozer. Memo, just isn't worth his liability on defense.
