Boozer Headed To Detroit Or New Jersey?

Found June 01, 2009 on The Scores Report: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Carlos Boozer,  Paul Millsap
TEAMS: Utah Jazz

That’s the word from Peter Vecsey of the New York Post, anyway. Apparently, rising free agent-of-choice Carlos Boozer is telling confidants he’s either going to Detroit or New Jersey — only way the capsized Nets pull that off is by doing a sign-and-trade. Utah seems more interested in re-signing Paul Millsap (and justifiably so). It’s not [...]

  • If this is true I can understand Detroit or New Jersey they need the help,what I can't understand is what the hell Utah is thinking ! ! ! ! !

  • They're thinking that Millsap is younger, cheaper, less injury prone and on his way to being just as effective as Boozer.

  • I like Paul Millsaps game but I just think this is to much of a gamble.

  • Miami gave up their chance to sign him when they acquired Jermaine O'Neal. His contract ran a year longer than Marion's. To acquire Boozer, they would need to execute a sign-and-trade.

  • Well I agree Boozer would great for either team. Detroit is rebuilding from their championship team starting by the ill-fate trade that gave away Billups. New Jersey on the other hand is always a player away in trade scenero's. Enter two other teams Miami with D.Wade & Cleveland with L.James booz would be a good running partner with both teams. So let the trade derby of the off-season begin. Oh thats right we have a championship to play Orlando in 7.

  • It must suck being an NBA player living in Utah. I visited a friend who went to school there, and it sucked just being there 3 days.

  • The Cavs could do that with a Varejo for Boozer deal on the famous sign-and-trade. I'm however hopeful the Cavs can pull off some trade or deals that will give them a low post presence to team with Ilgauskas, a big shooting guard & a possible point guard vet or youngster to groom. My names are Amare no.1 Boozer no.2 Villenueva no.3 for the front court. Artest no. 1 an offensive/defensive big guard & then maybe a Watson for the backup point guard. Its strange to talk about so many weaknesses in a Cleveland team that won 66 regular season games & cruised through the first 2 rounds of the playoffs.
