I hope people have come around to the pure, hard fact that Boozer was ****ing great.

How people could love Memo so much and hate Boozer so much simultaneously when their basketball weaknesses were the same will be forever mind-blowing. I don't care that Boozer was kind of a douche, that's probably the case with the majority of NBA players, even the scrubs.

Boozer was a great player, also was better than Okur. Their weaknesses were similar too.

I just think the difference comes from their approach. It's hard to gloss over the fact that Okur took painkillers to play a playoff game while he was dealing with injuries and tore his achilles which also happened before the World Cup and Boozer getting injuries because he misplaced his bag or he tripped and fell to the ground punch first.

The 90's were fun but I enjoyed watching this Deron/Boozer/Okur/AK team more.

Wow I definitely did not enjoy that team better then Stockton to Malone. No offense but were you 8 during the 90's? I can't see any way boozer and Deron were more fun than Stockton and Malone.
 
Which team did you guys enjoy watching more, the current one or the D-Will/Boozer/Memo/AK team?

Plus the had prime Hot Rod and Booner. It was the best of times. DWill was super fun though… it was not quite the “we might win a title fun” but was likely more visually appealing at times.

Depends on what kinda fun you are looking for… you want some fancy jack potting then Dwill and AK were the ticket. You want to win the title then it’s Karl and John.

I think I liked the underdog Ricky version of this team more than Dwill Boozer. It’s so close though. AK was maybe the most frustrating player ever. Soooooo much talent but injuries, not using him the right way, or just being only kind of interested in basketball… I just think he could have been so much better.

I agree, the Rubio/Mitchell/Ingles/Crowder/Favors/Gobert team was my favorite team since Stockton/Malone. I think I liked the D-Will/Boozer/Memo team more than the current iteration of this team. I also agree about AK being one of the most frustrating Jazz players ever...he was so talented but never reached his full potential
