Default Boozer Exposed

I thought you said this was gonna be a competitive series? Thanks for nothing man.

Boozer - he's got a really similar game to Brand who I watch game in and game out (Boozer's a better rebounder, worse shot-blocker, better passer, slightly more limited offensive arsneal overall I'd say, but otherwise v. close).

The problem with undersized power forwards is they really struggle with big frontcourts. Not merely neutralized (and yeah I guess "they'll still find a way to get their 20/10") they just have no chance of dominating a game (which I think Boozer needs to do for Utah to have a chance, unless Deron does what he did at the end of the 4th for a whole game).

The adjustment is a high-screen / side-screen game that keeps Boozer away from the basket (which Sloan did with some impact), but this is obviously not good. Sure, like Brand, Boozer can stick the mid-range jumper, but it kills other facets of their game.

Just speaking from the experience of watching Brand alot.
