Kragthorpe: Jazz fans need to get over it and root for Boozer

Off topic, but after watching some of the bulls in the playoffs this year. One thing is clear to me. I am really glad those 3 are not on the Jazz anymore.

Boozer is their 4th best big man. Brewer is still not being guarded. And Korver is so bad on defense they are forced to play Rose on Wade or Labron when he is in.
 
I couldn't help but notice that Boozer was riding the pine down the stretch in the game last night. Did he even play in the 4th quarter? THAT pretty much sums up where Boozer is in his coach's estimation right now.

I'm not a Boozer hater or supporter, but he's been damned disappointing this year and in the playoffs. I'm guessing Chicago is suffering a bit of buyer's remorse. I'm glad he's gone.

I'm definitely glad Boozer is not anymore but we need Brewer and Korver, no matter how you sugar coat it that we don't. Our defense and 3pt shooting are the worst part of this team right now. Brewer can still slash and isn't completely ignored and Korver has a huge impact because everyone on that court knows that he can flat out shoot. I think Korver's D is underrated BECAUSE he tries so hard on defense. He isn't quick or athletic enough to actually play good defense but I think trying is a major part of defending so he has got that down. He doesn't really take plays off, on both ends he is running around like a madman.
 
Man I want the Bulls to beat the Heat. I think it would be so awesome and I actually feel a little bad for Boozer. Man that sucks. So will Boozer be traded this offseason?

Where does Kragthorpe gets his ideas for articles? Often seems like he is stretching to make up something to write about. This is a perfect example.

It's because of the fact that Jazz fans can't stop talking about Boozer and he feels the need to step in.

The compassion warms my heart a little.

1. I don't want the Bulls to win because I don't want to see Boozer win a title.
2. I don't want the Heat to win because Lebron is a scumbag.
3. I don't want the Thunder to win because I hate seeing a division rival doing so well.
4. I don't want the Mavs to win because I hate this talk about Dirk being a better player than Karl Malone.

****...I guess I'll watch the NHL playoffs.

I feel pretty similar but would root for a West team to win the Finals, I talk myself more into Dallas just for the fact they're older and only have maybe 1 more season at this level IMO. Also I can talk myself that OKC if they won despite the further Durant love fest that would pursue it would be harder for them to keep their team together as other teams usually try to grab players off of teams that went to the finals.
 
Dallas over Chicago. Any time the Heat lose, it's a win for the sport, and the Thunder haven't paid enough dues. Both as a team, and as a city (who don't deserve a team, or at least don't deserve that team). Chicago is the lesser of two evils, and Dallas play the game the right way and are a bunch of aging players that might not have much more time. I can get behind that.

Exactly. My nightmare would be a Heat/Thunder finals, validating two of the things that are wrong with the NBA.
 
Let's go Dallas... Get a ring for Nowitzki, the best international NBA player, ever. Cuban deserves a thropy, too. Winning it in a season when Zenmaster's journey ends would mean to him something special, I think. Kidd is a future HOF. I see no reasons for not rooting for the Mavs. Screw you Carlosina, he will never ever deserve that contract, in fact, my man Omer and Gibson are ones that have to play flawless defense and with huge effort. DRose is special but Boozer just neutralizes my position in that ECF series.
 
As much as I hate the Bulls and want to root for the Mavs, I'd love to see Boozer get a ring just to stick it to all the people who constantly make up garbage and don't give him enough credit. Other than that, I hate the Bulls and don't care for Rose's game a lot.

It would make me laugh like crazy to have to bulls win it all with Boozer's fat *** on the bench for the entire 4th quarter of every game. I still don't want them to win. But that would almost make it funny enough to accept. Not that it matters. They can't beat the Heat anyway.

This is so laughable. If Boozer gets a title it will be despite him, not because of him. The guy you whose game you don't care for has absolutely carried Boozer to this point.
