Great pickup. Excited to see him in charlotte.

wait... who wants to start boozer? if he comes here, it needs to be as cheap depth, not as a starter.

I would start Boozer at PF if he were signed, and use him the same way Thibodeau did in Chicago, whereas I wouldn't play him during critical moments of the game, like the 4th quarter

I watched 30+ Bulls games last year since WGN airs their games like TBS use to do the Braves games, and there is no way in hell he would start with Jefferson unless Clifford has all of a sudden become a drug addict. His defense, mainly his help side defense is terrible. Hes not even a good post player. He mainly hits a mid range jumper every now and then, but his passing is erratic, and that combined with his defense he is on the big time down slope of his career. Id love to have him coming off the bench though.

If I were in the front office/coaching staff one of my top priorities for the season would be to do a better job working the refs. The treatment that they gave MKG in particular was egregious, we can't let that continue. We need to make sure our guys are getting treated fairly.

Lebron shoves mkg to the floor while driving. Foul on mkg that was some serious bull ****

Not too many people despise Boozer as much as I have over the past few years, but despite his irritant play even I can admit that he's a better player than Cody Zeller and Marvin Williams

Yeah he sucks.

I was surprised by how far he fell off.

I'm not sure people that want him have watched him much over the past few seasons.

I'm not claiming I've watched him much either, but I can't remember the last good game I seen him have.

Meaningless stats.

As of right now, I would rather start Vonleh or Zeller over Boozer easily. Its his defense that is the problem. He couldn't defense a dead animal right now, and next to Jefferson? Clifford can only do so much.

Clifford had no problem throwing Gary Neal out there and benching MKG during critical minutes, so I doubt that he'd view it the way you do

Trust me, I don't want to see Boozer on this team and certainly not starting alongside Jefferson, but even with his bad defense he will make for a more positive net player than either of Zeller or Williams at the moment. I'm not sure on Vonleh, because I'm currently on record of hoping that he win the starting job in training camp because his skill sets offensively and defensively fit alongside Jefferson even if he may be a little raw out there

Boozer absolutely will not have a net positive greater than Zeller, or especially Williams at this point.

Either way I don't think we have the room left to bid on him. Thank God for that.

We still have about 4m.

Not for Boozer I hope!

Boozer will command more than 4 million, We got a walking corpse in Haywood for 2 million. Time to see what Zeller is made of, and he needs to get his **** together.

Zeller will be getting the opportunity of a lifetime, he needs to come along in a big way.

Ewing certainly put it on him to do so!

Lance is the best one-on-one player since Michael Jordan, so if us Hornets allow him room to operate, he could lead the NBA in scoring (and have crazy all-round numbers too)

Thought you were trolling till I saw the Hornets avatar. Stephenson has immense upside, thats for sure, but to respond to your post. No

This is in good fun.

[olive_triangurl]

but i think we can all agree Lance has no limit.
i mean if Lance averaged 30ppg nobody would be like "i had no idea he could score like that!"
anyway very glad to have Lance as our father/brother.

I mean I'll agree with whatever you want if your avatar is you and you happen to leave your number in my inbox

[NCHeels2008]

i'm thrilled, i've been a huge advocate for this signing, love the price we got him at

I'd be surprised!

Definitely has GREAT potential though!
