Yeah folks, we aren't missing him. Not one bit. Look for Chicago to try and unload him all next year. They're already having buyers remorse.

If you want a turning point, how about with 2:24 left in the third quarter when Carlos Boozer hit James across the face with his left forearm to earn a flagrant foul? There are hard playoff fouls that are part of every playoff series and dumb ones. This was the latter, the second time in the postseason Boozer has inflicted unnecessary violence at a time the Bulls didn't need it. (Remember Josh Smith?) Finally, Boozer rotates defensively and still hurts the Bulls.

Rose has . . . somebody help me here. Carlos Boozer? We’ll get to him in a moment.
Which brings us to Boozer and whatever’s inside him. If someone can explain coach Tom Thibodeau’s infatuation with him, speak up. And if it’s because of Boozer’s Megaball contract, shame on Thibs.
In the first half, Boozer had as much of a presence as hair does on his head, with three points, three rebounds and three fouls. So there were issues heading into the second half, with everything on the line.
In the third quarter, Boozer threw up a weak jump hook that had no chance. The next time down, Bosh blocked his shot.
At that point, the only thing that saved the Bulls was that Wade basically canceled out Boozer with eight turnovers, including traveling calls within a minute of each other in the second quarter.
The Bulls need a shooting guard in the worst way.
Rose needs to work on his outside shot and his defense.
Boozer looks like more of a liability than an asset.
