    If the Bulls amnesty Boozer, would he be worth a look for cheap? I know most people here hate the idea of Boozer in Houston but if he comes cheap, why not? He can rebound and hit the mid range jumper. I think worth a look

    Depends on the contract. It's not the same as signing Malone but it's similar.

    No, he's horrible.

    A crappy mid range jump shooting big man.

    Mediocre rebounder and can't block shots.

    Is Boozer really that bad when you put him with Howard and Harden? I think he would be a decent fit here. His perimeter game is good enough.

    However, I don't want him if that means losing Parsons.

    I'm game. The power forward market is thin. Freaking Jordan Hill got 9 mill per.

    Even discounting the fact that he both sucks and was a Jazz, the Rockets have to renounce their MLE and Lin's trade exception to put a bid in.

    Suffice to say, NOT worth it.

    i asked Bima a bit ago on twitter, his answer...

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-conversation="none" lang="en"><p><a href="https://twitter.com/BeevoughTX">@BeevoughTX</a> Not if Rockets match on Parsons. Only teams under cap can amnesty bid. Rockets w/Parsons won't have room.</p>&mdash; David Weiner (@BimaThug) <a href="https://twitter.com/BimaThug/statuses/488088849520685056">July 12, 2014</a></blockquote>

    Fair enough. Didn't know that. If Parsons is matched, lock it up!
