Boozer would obviously help scoring (a lot) but I've never been a fan of his, he's kind of a black hole and he flat out doesn't care on defense.
Boozer has made his career by being a hustler. He hustles on D and plays D. I don't know what give you the impression Boozer is not a good defender but I can tell you know your off. Rethink this one.
Okur is a bad defender but Crash is not better then AK on D. How can you even say that and keep a straight face? When you think of the top defenders in the league AK is always in the conversation because he is a shotblocking freak. Wallace is not as good as him.
As a matter of fact AK's blocks make up for Mek's and Wallace's combined.
Boozer is a supstanial upgrade over Diaw and Okur and EO50 are not that far off.
It's not a trade that i would go crazy for but I would pull the trigger.
