Looks like no Boozer for the 12/20 game

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
You guys know the reason we hvae larry hughes, drew marshall, damon jones and av is because boozer left us. If he wouldnt have left we would have had to pony up the doe to keep him. Boozer leaving was the ultimate blessing in disguise. What he did was messed up but it ended up being the best thing to happen to this franchise since winning the LeBron lottery.
 
I hope he doesn't travel to Cleveland on the 20th. That will be much more comical.

It's a real shame personally the way this Boozer leaving Cleveland ended up. I never liked the guy despite everyone licking his balls for the two seasons he was here. I wanted him to leave under better circumstances and whe he returned and we scored all over him because he was one of the worst defensive forwards ever, and hid behind Ilgauskas just looking for rebounds whilst Z continually defended his man, and finally I could rest easy knowing that he just sucks and evryone would be in aggreeance.

Ok, its off my chest. I disliked Boozer, so this kinda sweet.
 
Good for you for recognizing it. Boozer was a fan favorite here, for obvious reasons. But when you look at what he did here:

He did more than score off putbacks, he had a decent 18 footer.

He grabbed rebounds with tenacity. There is a reason why we were the best rebounding team when he was here, then dropped to 15th when he left. His 11 rpg means a lot more than you think when his replacement grabbed 9. He did benefit from having Ilgauskas next to him, but he did well to fit his role.

His name was Boozer. Come on! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOZER was a great chant.

Defense was an issue. He wasn't a shot blocker, but his size would have made him a more tenacious interior bruiser than Gooden. Under Mike Brown, he would have definitely flourished into a decent defender.

But in the end, I'm more than happy with what we have here and never think for a second what it would be like to have Boozer now. We have Anderson Varejao and Drew Gooden, you cannot ask for more. Not to mention the acquisition of Donyell Marshall. Our frontcourt is solid, no doubt about that, and it's going to be like that for years to come.
