Cool With Boozer

Deron Williams is cool with Boozer. Coach Sloan is cool with Boozer. Everyone's cool with Boozer! If they're cool with Boozer... then I'm cool with Boozer. Now that we're ready to go and all on the same page, let's get the season started! Really though, what else are they going to say?

According to Sloan via the Salt Lake Tribune...
"My job is to coach whoever's here. That hasn't changed," Sloan said, adding, "We'll do everything we can to try to make it work. Will we be perfect? Probably not. In order to win in this league, you have to have good players. And he's a good player."

According to DWill via the Deseret News...
"He went on the radio and said he wanted to play elsewhere. If he feels that way, that's fine. But he opted in, so he's a member of this team. Regardless, if you like somebody on or off the court, as far as I'm concerned I'm going to play with him regardless because I want to win. So, when you step on that court, there's no bad blood at all."
"I think it's a big year for him because it's a contract year, so I believe he'll come back and play hard and that's really all you can ask for because you know what you're going to get from him. The type of player he is on the offensive end is hard to match."

Who think that Boozer lasts the year with the Jazz? No one. He's gone by the trade deadline, probably for some washed up has-been.

Regardless, it is probably now safe to say that Deron Williams does NOT like Carlos Boozer off the court.

It depends on how we're playing. If the Jazz are competitive and playing well (top tier playoff team), then Boozer will stay. If not, then the Jazz will probably find a way to trade him. Truthfully though, I believe he'll be on the team for the full season. Perhaps my opinion is the exception here. I don't think there will be a trade available that will garner a better talent. Plus, Boozer's already expiring.
