Who is better?I think Carlos Boozer is better. Zach is probably the better offensive player because of his insanely good touch from 5 feet away from the rim. He has a good repertoire of post mvoes, and when given the ball, he will be able to score. The con about Zach is that he is a horrid passer when he attracts double teams in the post, he is not that motivated, selfish, and simply lazy as F*ck. He is a big ass man, and he averages .2 bpg. He doesn't feel the need to contest shots, and that is hurting his team. Carlos will get his 20 compared to Zach's 23, but he will bring rebounding, some defense, and tenacity to the table, and I'd rather have him.Zach would not fit into any winning system because he doesn't know how to play the team game. Like I said before, he is a terrible passer, and also very selfish. How do you think he would work under Jerry Sloan? haha...

He works insanely hard in the offseason... plus I think zach CAN fit in a winning system, but I dont know if that system is the blazers
I thnk that I would say Carlos is better. Even though Zach has better range, I just really love Carlos around the basket. He is very quick for his position, and he has had a great season. I think that if he was on the blazers, and was forced to score more, he would at least be averaging what Randolph is or more. Carlos is also a better rebounder...He is one of the best rebounders in the league considering he is somewhat of an undersized player for his position. And once again, he would average even more boards if he played for the Blazers. They are both pretty bad defenders so...But I would give the edge to Carlos in that aspect.
I have yet to watch a full Utah Jazz game this season, but I've watched 3 Blazers games and came away impressed with Randolph. His offense is so much more versatile then I ever gave him credit for. He can hit the jumper (can even step out and hit the three), has a ton of post moves and can take it to the basket (mostly to his left). Like I said, I have not seen Boozer play enough to really decide one way or the other.
