    As most of us know, Carlos Boozer will be a free agent in the upcoming offseason. It is very unlikely that he will stay with the Jazz, and there has been much speculation of where he will go. As a Rockets fan, and Rockets fans generally don't like the Jazz or there players, how would you feel if the Rockets picked up Boozer? Most of us have been hoping that Bosh will come to Houston, but Carlos Boozer is also a possiblity, as absurd as it may sound. Boozer would be a good 4 for the Rockets, with Yao back at the 5. Although this is unlikely, how would you guys feel towards Boozer? Would you become a fan of his right away, would you have to wait and see more, or would you never become a fan of him?

    Did you watch game 1 of the Lakers-Jazz series?

    Dude was pathetic on defense all game. He also allowed Odom to get a pivotal offensive rebound and lay in.

    He botched up a decent look off a pick and roll on the very next possession. Game over. Jazz lose.

    Can't really get him as a free agent unless it's through sign and trade. I think he'll be more expensive than he's worth anyway (like David Lee).

    Unless, of course, he'll take a MLE. :grin:

    How did Luke feel when he found out Darth Vader was his father? Or when he found out he kissed his sister romantically?

    I would almost certainly no longer be able to eat pepperoni pizza.

    I can survive seeing him a few times a year but 82+, nope.

    yeah give up jordan hill (they probably would want chase, lighter pigment) and watch them torch the rockets for years.

    I would feel terrible. Can't stand Boozer. Can't stand Amare either.

    I'd rather eat my own vomit and then repeatedly stick the fork in my eye than have Boozer become a Rocket.

    im really starting to get pissed by all the "i dont like their personality/attitude" crap... talking about ugliness, however, is a different story lol..
    but seriously, if a player is obviously a proven superstar with good talent, hell yeaa!!! i see where your coming from, but cmon..
    and im not talking bout boozer, but the stuff about bosh and amare.. if theyre there for us, how could u say no!!???
    when it comes to boozer, i dont like the jazz either ( see username), but if within reach somehow, hell yeaa!!!
    hopefully i made my point clear

    - ETJ!!!

    Plan A) Bosh/Stoudemire -ideal
    Plan B) Al Jefferson -pretty solid
    Plan C) Carlos Boozer DO NOT WANT!!!!
