Boozer? I thought Ainge was Mormon?
Celticsblog.net cited a story from the Providence Journal:
The word is Ainge would like to make a deal for an accomplished frontcourt player. Last summer, the name being thrown around was Drew Gooden. This time it’s Utah forward Carlos Boozer. The cost probably would be Al Jefferson, whom the Celtics seem to have soured on, considering that a year ago he was on the cover of the media guide billed as a future star and now is a name that seems to surface whenever a trade is mentioned.I've never been a fan of Carlos Boozer. While he is solid, he's vastly overpaid and has never played at the same clip as he did in trying to earn is contract. Add in the injury issues and I just am not interested. A frontcourt of Wally, Boozer, and Perkins simply isn't championship material. The most obvious deal would likely be Theo and Big Al for Boozer and Arraujo which I would pretty much despise. #7 and Raef for Boozer and Bassy? No thank you. Here's hoping Danny sits on his hands until he can do what he does best, which is draft.
