We all know him from his nonsense injury antics and ill-advised remarriage to his crazy wife that he single-handedly made Monson and Siler lose sleep because of the golden material they had to write with, but there is no arguement Carlos Boozer was a great player on this team when he was 100% healthy. His numbers can show that.
After all this hype about D-will going off on Hayward, it got me thinking that there is one thing I can honestly say I miss about Boozer: His emotions. Emotions in the good sense, not the "yelling at rookies" sense. He would dunk with such childish authority swinging like a 12 year-old on the monkey bars, but it got the crowd and his teammates hyped up. He would yell and throw a "punch" (even though he would tell you he tripped over a bag if he broke his hand punching) when he got an "and 1", but let's face it: he got you and I hyped up.
Maybe I'm just up in the night, but do we need someone else other than D-will to take that role. To get fired up, emotional, downright silly? Who can live up to that role? Raja? No way. Hayward? He can't even rap. Millsap? Thoughts?
