Where Boozer will end up according to ESPN...

[calijazz]

According to 100 scenarios I went through in ESPN's FA Slot Machine, (which are based on what ESPN analysts think are the most likely scenarios this off-season) this is where Boozer ended up in them. Thought this may be some good off-season fodder.

Utah: 34%
Miami: 25%
Chicago: 13%
NY Knicks: 9%
NJ Nets: 8%
Detroit: 6%
Washington: 4%
Houston: 1%

Thoughts? Do you still think Utah is still Boozer's most likely destination?

Chicago-I cannot see him in Utah unless AK is traded

 

[DwillClutch34]

Chicago or Miami. It all depends on where Wade is.

 

[NUMBERICA]

Not Utah. They ****-ed themselves.

You did that 100 times? Dude, you've got too much free time on your hands. Find a hobby for ****'s sake.

Whichever team loses out on getting Lebron, Bosh, Wade, or Stoudamire will throw a large sum of change at Boozer and get him - maybe Chicago, NY, NJ, or Miami.

1.Miami
2.Chicago
3.NJ

I don't see a scenario where Boozer returns to the Jazz unless they are able to unload Memo or AK

I knew somebody would post something like that. It only took me about 15-20 minutes, I wasn't doing it all night. But thanks for your concern.

So what if I'm a nerd, aren't we all for regularly posting/moderating on a message board?

I'm not expecting any of the first-tier guys to actually move so I think it makes sense that Boozer will end up elsewhere if for no other reason than that. Miami is the obvious choice.

I see Lebron/Wade/Bosh/Stoudemire pairing off in some form leaving Boozer to the markets he isn't interested in. But I expect him to start quietly groveling for Miami at some point. And he does have a big chip he can play which would be to lower his price considerably. He might entice Miami with a lower offer that would enable them to add another big piece along with Wade. Wade/Stoudemire/Johnson is not feasible, for example, but Wade/Boozer/Johnson could be. That might mean an S&T of Beasley to us, or various other S&T's, with both Boozer and Johnson coming down slightly on their stickers to form the next Big 3.

Boozer Stays.

Does this mean that you don't expect Bosh to move or that you don't consider Bosh a first-tier guy?

unless they get Bosh instead

 

[Duck Rodgers]

The latter. Wade/Bron/Nowtizki/Stoudemire are the guys I like the most and whom I think are #1 guys on good teams. I think Bosh fits more in the Boozer category.

Plus, I still sense a little American apprehensive about living in Canada for some reason. Maybe I'll google "Bosh outrage" to confirm my suspicions.

I predict Boozer is back with Utah.

I know I sure am. But I'm a cool nerd though.

If you say so...

For the record, I think Boozer's future with the Jazz is tied primarily to the draft. If the Jazz go with a big, Boozer's gone. If not, they'll make a stronger effort to re-sign him. So in essence...I think Boozer is most likely gone.
