A bit expensive? The way he's playing now your trying to argue that he didn't deserve what he got?
That team isn't 5-1 without Boozer, and averaging over 100pts a game. Oh, don't forgot to mention they are 3rd in the leauge in points against. Boozer thus far, while only 6 games in has been worth every single penny they spent.
Physcial big men? What do you need those for? The entire west doesn't have one. Duncan? KG? Yao? McGrady? None of them are physcial players, all of them will settle for the 15 foot jump shots, although, McGrady doesn't have too. Boozer and AK are good in the middle, the team swarms every ball that hits the paint, they have outstanding ball movement, and shot selection - and right now, you can easily call them a top 4 team. The Kings? Are you kidding me? They can't get out of their own way.
Provided they can keep the frantic pace they play at for the rest of the season, they can easily get that squad deep into the playoffs. When was the last time Detroit was manhandled like they were by the Jazz? It was never a contest.
Utah is a complete TEAM. Indiviual names make no difference.
Yes, it's only 6 games in, and they may fall on their faces, but.. I'll take my chances.
