Wow, what a crazy thing to happen...Cavs try to be the nice guy, Boozer pisses all over them, and laughs all the way to the bank...

Great to be a Jazz fan


But anyway, from what I heard on a Utah radio station yesterday, Cleveland, because of some "early bird rights" or whatever, can only offer Carlos the MLE...which obviously isn't enough. Is this true, even if they do cut enough cap space?

Second, if they are able to match it, who would they cut? Would it be worth it to the team to clean house?

Finally, do you guys want Carlos back?

I'm not an expert on the CBA but what I've heard from more knowledgable people is that there is no way the Cavs can offer him more than the MLE right now, even if they had the cap space.

Even if they could, I wouldn't want to match him for that much money. It's just too much money. I was as big of a fan of him as anybody but there are better ways to spend that much money.

Let that loser walk. He better come down with a mysterious injury the next time the Jazz play the Cavs after this. What a ****hole.

And anyhow. For that money, Utah can have him. The Cavs would be better off using that money to pursue greener pastures. He was Lebron's Horace Grant anyways.(And oddly enough, just like Horace, he took the money and ran).

Carlos is a great player, but with what he has done there is no way the cavs should match this. The cavs have tried to help him out here and he has lied to them.

By trying to match the offer we are gonna have to lose some players and as a result of that i think the feelings towards boozer by our players wouldn't be to good.

This guy has set back our franchise for a few years. Before this he was 1 of my favourite players, now i really dont want the guy back on the team. He is 1 player i do not wish a good future for.

The OUTLAW

I agree that the Cavs should not try to resign Boozer. But from what I understand if they could clear space they'd be able to match. However being a 2nd rounder the team would not have been able to offer him more than the MLE originally. Frankly, I think Utah overpaid for him.

i dont like when players play for just money i think thats the case for boozer but nothing worse then karl malone selling out utah for the ring im glad he dint get it

BigMike

Wow buddy you're not real bright, huh?

Karl Malone did NOT sell out Utah to get a ring.

He left, yes...but he made 18 MILLION DOLLARS LESS in LA than he would have in Utah.
