Boozer is terrible. He and Big Al would get in each others way offensively and defensively they'd possibly be the worst frontcourt in the league.

You gotta look past the name. He isn't a 20/10 guy anymore. He's had a great career but he's not that good anymore. I'd rather trade Henderson/Zeller/pick for Greg Monroe.

Monroe and Boozer are very similar players. Both have the capability of knocking down the 15 footer but both prefer to play just outside the paint. The difference is that we wouldn't have to shell out $10 mil for Boozer.

I also disagree that he (Boozer) is terrible. It's his contract that was terrible. He is still a 14/8 player. I can also think of plenty more front court combo's that are worse defensively than Jefferson/Boozer.

At the end of the day it doesn't matter though, being that we didn't win the amnesty bid.

Not sure why the Lakers want him when they have Randle and Davis. Surely it would have been better for them to develop those guys, than bring in a guy like Boozer to take mins away from them?

If they were a contender I guess it would make some sense. But they aren't. They are more like a 30-win team at best.

Ed Davis just got f*cked over and I bet he's pretty mad. He just signed a 2y/$2mil deal with LA that has a player option for the 2nd year. Apparently he left a bit of money on the table to be a backup elsewhere because he wanted playing time. He wanted to showcase himself this year then look to get paid next summer. Now he's gonna be buried in the bench behind Boozer/Hill/Randle.

He's put up great numbers when he actually gets a chance to play. He's just spent most his career on teams with great big men (Randolph/Gasol/Bosh).

Can't/doesn't Hill play at center?

They seem pretty thin at center outside of him and Sacre. So I assume Hill will play at center.

Granted that still leaves Davis behind Randle and Boozer, but he should see some mins [albeit limited].
