While New York and the rest of the NBA world were anticipating his

Playing in Karl Malone’s shadow in Utah didn’t bother Carlos Boozer the
past six seasons.
The soon-to-be unrestricted free agent apparently wouldn’t be fazed by
continuing to do that — or by following in Michael Jordan’s footsteps in
Chicago, either.
Boozer even believes other big-name free agents might look at it as "an
attractive thing to have that history, where M.J. played, where
(Scottie) Pippen played for those six championships," the power forward
said during an interview on Windy City-based ESPN 1000’s "The Waddle
& Silvy Show" on Wednesday. Continue reading “Carlos Boozer finds the Bulls' 'really good, really young' club a” »

A month from today, Carlos Boozer will wake up with the uncertainty
over for himself and the Jazz. Maybe he will be in Oakland, Calif.,
where the Jazz on Feb. 19 will play the Golden State Warriors in the
third stop of a four-game trip.
Only 35 days remain until the Feb. 18 trade deadline.
Unless the Jazz do something sooner, that means only 35 more days of Carlos Boozer trade talk.
Because of his expiring $12.8 million contract and a public declaration
last summer that he expected to be traded, Boozer’s name will continue
to be prominently mentioned in trade-related stories over the next five
weeks. Continue reading “Utah Jazz notes: Booz shakes off trade talk” »

While they announced Wednesday that Matt Harpring will miss all of training camp, the preseason and the start of the regular season due to ankle and knee injuries, the Jazz will have Carlos Boozer on hand when they report to camp.

This whole unhappy Carlos Boozer Saga started, it seems to me, last December.
After the injury-battered Jazz scored what should have been an uplifting win at New Jersey, Boozer ruined the moment for everyone but his accountant by telling an ESPN reporter that he planned to opt out of his contract at the end of the season because, no matter what happened after that, he’d get a raise.
