    Making a Bid on Boozer... I think I am in the minority but I really think he will help out team.

    Howard
    Boozer
    Ariza
    Harden
    Beverley

    Is a solid starting 5 with TJ/Daniels and either Canaan or Johnson rounding out the 8 man rotation.

    Boozer is a veteran with something to prove

    Covered in other threads, but the Rockets are working as a team over the cap in order to preserve the MLE, BAE and the traded player exception.

    We therefore cannot bid on Boozer in the amnesty bidding as you are required to have cap room equal to the amount you bid.

    Whether or not we pursue him if he hits FA by clearing amnesty is unknown.

    Honestly Booze is better than anyone we can get for MLE and TPE given what's out there for 8.4m or less (that teams are willing to let go of easily). Forfeit em

    No Boozer. There is already another thread about this clown on the board. Normally I wouldn't care but its Boozer and the thread title sucks.

    I genuinely don't think I could root for this guy if we signed him.

    Why? I don't mean about Boozer, I mean Why did you need to start another thread on this?

    Stop it.
