    Don't know about the Rox, but out of boredom from the drought that is the NBA offseason I was browsing Jazz forums, and they are not pleased with Boozer lol. Heres some quotes I laughed at.

    "By my estimate, Boozer's defensive non-efforts, cost the Jazz about 4 games last season and really the #1 seed."

    "Boozer might be hated on here, especially by me, but other GMs might feel that he is a piece to a championship."

    "Maybe its because Bosh and Howard are clearly better than Boozer. Boozer wouldn't even be on this team if Amare hadn't pulled out."

    "The difference between Bosh and Boozer is Bosh plays the other 50% of the game."

    "Nope Boozer's lack of Olympic playing time is not good for the Jazz, because it showed that he still is not willing to play defense. Just my opinion"

    "Sad but true..... I just hope that Boozer's effort in our games will be better this year because it'shis contract year..."

    Thanks, I couldn't think of anyone better than me to start this thread.

    Lol

    On a serious note, I can't believe so many people here think Landry is overrated. I think he's the real deal. Hopefully, people aren't letting his contract situation clout their judgment. The guy is a huge asset to this team.

    Addressed to redao:

    Please explain to me how Tmac is a leader?

    I don't want to hear because he can score the most or he handles the ball the most. I want to know what is it that he does and how he does it that gives him this great leadership.

    Tell me what you see that I don't on how he pushes his team forward. What is it that he does to keep them hyped up or how he directs the floor.

    Hakeem Olajuwon. He should thank Robert Horry for those two trophies.

    Aaron Brooks no doubt. Dude can't shoot (in a game) or defend.

    You're right. Maybe we can all hold hands and each say how we are going to be a beter fan this year. We could also sing a song!!!!

    Someone needs to watch Tmacs 13 in 35 game again. Dude sometimes just turns it on and takes the game into his hands. Perhaps he's not a verbal leader in the sense that Alston is, if that was what you were talking about.

    It is a matter of how you define "leader".

    for me, whoever handle the ball the most and you have to count on in clutch time is the leader of the team. TMAC is the leader, hands down.

    but, if we have to choose a vocal cheerleader type leader, it has to be TMAC too.

    TMAC said "it's on me" and cried after the loss.
    TMAC said he needed better PG and PF... Morey brought in James, Francis, Brooks, Scola and Landry.
    TMAC said he wanted to shoot the ball his way. JVG granted.
    TMAC is the leader of the franchise until Yao can say something.
    TMAC has tattoos, lazy eyes,illegal baby....he's got some attitude though not as bad as Rafer or Artest.


    whoever the leader of this team is, he is not a great leader because the team had been to nowhere.

    now, How is Rafer the leader of the team? :confused:

    THere 's no doubt that tmac is the most overrated rocket , tamc may not be the worst but his conbtributions to the team can hardly match his sky high salary . More over , even luther head can get 20pts per game if he got as many shots as tamc gets . Tmac is nothing more tahn a chance waster and a winning killer .

    McGrady for the fact that some actually put him in the same class as Kobe Bryant... he's closer to Lamar Odom.
