What more really needs to be said?
An article I once read said Carlos Boozer seemed to get injured if one sneezed at him. (It was a great article in the Deseret News, can't find it at the mo but I will post it if I find it).
Anyways, let's let the stats tell the story.
2008-2009 season: Carlos Boozer
12 games. 12!?
FG%: .559
Rebounds/Game: 11.7
Assists: 2.7
Points/Game: 20.5
Salary: $11,593,817 (if he plays the last 25 games of the season as he claims he will try to do, he is making $313, 346.41 PER GAME PLAYED THIS YEAR)
St. Paul Milsap
39 games
FG%:.564
Rebounds: 9.7
Assists: 2.1
Points: 15.6
Salary: $707,581
Someone explain to me why Boozer would be paid max money for another 5-7 injury-riddled seasons in Utah while Saint Paul can be retained for 1/10th the price and is nearly identical to Boozer in most major statistical categories?
Good riddance, Carlos. Enjoy rebuilding Miami.
