Ok now he's gonna why no wing
Fuck I knew one thing when going up against the bulls, it's was Booz was coming to play. Booz brought his A game always, might not been what y'all wanted but he didn't disappear like some of the other players(well as a opponent)
We had to pay all our guys. Rose and Butler came off their rookie contracts. Taj and Noah got extended, the rest of the money went to the Spaniards and the white boys. So we drafted Snell and McDermott who are not starter-ready and probably won't be for another season or 2. We need to make a trade to get a STARTING wing.
If Boozer was all that, why didn't he carry the team at any point after Rose went down? I know Noah and Deng stepped up. They went on to be all-stars and DPOY contenders. At one point, they were considering Noah for MVP.
Where was A-1 Boozer that whole time?
Why was Tom Thibodeau playing Taj Gibson in 4th quarters while Boozer rode the pine?
Why at NO POINT did anybody (Bulls fans, analysts, the Bulls FO) ever consider keeping Carlos Boozer a Chicago Bull after the amnesty provisions were given out in the current CBA?
Because the nigga wasn't all that.
He was inconsistent. You can't go off just the 8-10 national games you saw him in.
If Boozer was get paid 8-10 million, nobody would've had a problem with him playing the way he did.
But his agent knew the Bulls were desperate after striking out in the free agency in 2010 and the Bulls FO had to overpay for him.
15-16 mil a year? He didn't deserve that shit. He was being paid to be that dude and he wasn't that dude.
He was making the same money as Kevin Love, Brook Lopez, Westbrook, Marc Gasol and Lamarcus Aldridge. Can you imagine how the Bulls would've been with either of those guys, plus that nice bench in 2011?
Boozer had like one good 1-2 month run in like Jan-Feb 2012 or something and that was it. He really was not all that.
