<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">TRADE TALK: The NBA's deadline for dealing passed last Thursday, but trade talk remains alive and well around the league. According to NBA columnist Mitch Lawrence, writing in last Sunday's New Daily News: "The Jazz held off on dealing Carlos Boozer to the Lakers, but look for that deal to be revisited this summer. The Lakers' package included Brian Cook and Chris Mihm, but the Jazz believe it can do better than that." An older rumor suggested talk of a three-team, multi-player trade that would have included Boozer going to L.A., Mihm to Golden State and the Warriors' Troy Murphy to Utah ? but that discussion supposedly never got far. If after watching Boozer finish the season the Jazz do decide to trade him next summer, expect for them to want to hold out for what they believe is fair exchange value ? no panic deals, in other words, a la Vince Carter going from Toronto to New Jersey.</div> Source Boozer's 19 rebounds in 29 minutes last night was damn impressive.
19 rebounds in 29 minutes is damn impressive. 19 rebounds in 29 minutes versus the Warriors is not impressive. With the way the Warriors have been shooting lately even I could get double digit rebounds on them. Warriors suck on perimeter shooting and suck on rebounding. But anyway, Boozer would be huge for the Lakers. Maybe the Warriors can trade Murphy for Boozer. Both have big contracts and both are double double guys.
Boozer is a good rebounder, and a 20/10 guy. But any good rebounder will be a GREAT rebounder against the Warriors. Seems you haven't seen much Warrior games, they're just awful at rebounding and shooting. Yao had like 21 rebounds on them a few games ago.

Kwame Brown had his best game in a Laker uniform against the Warriors, 18/12. The best thing about Boozer (when healthy) is you can pencil him in for 16/10 every night. He's a consistent producer when he gets minutes. If the Lakers were able to acquire him without giving up Odom, they would have a solid trio of players with Kobe-Odom-Boozer.
Those injuries will disappear with a new team. He doesn't want to be in Utah, he'd thrive here in L.A.

And superstars like legends. Murphy and Boozer basically have the same production but different styles of play. While Boozer's contract is slightly bigger than Murphys I'd still take him.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting K8B:</div><div class="quote_post">Those injuries will disappear with a new team.</div> Uh, that makes no sense at all.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Bobcats:</div><div class="quote_post">Uh, that makes no sense at all.</div> Yes it does. Boozer is milking the most out of his injuries because he doesn't want to be in Utah. He wants to be in L.A., he constantly travels to L.A., those injuries will go away.
