Would you swap Manu for Boozer?

[NRHector]

It seems that you are new in this forum, so any threads about trading Manu are not welcome in this forum, Manu is untouchable.

[spursfan09]

Manu is the intangible. He is the x - factor. So no thank you

[z0sa]

I would not do it, but from a "talent" standpoint, people need to quit acting like Boozer is some scrub.

Is he a massive ? Yes. Does he play very poor defense? Yes. But he has talent and has been a ~20/10 guy for a while. Most of the league or GM's would put Manu on the same tier as Boozer value wise when both are healthy. Some may put Boozer much ahead.

Spurs value Manu for his hustle, heart and intangibles. He is a good guy and easy to root for when he is on your team. But people need to quit flaming the OP like it is some ridiculous idea.

... maybe we all took a look at our big man situation and realized we need a 2005 ben wallace, the opposite of a 2009 Carlos Boozer, if we're going to shore the situation up further. Scoring and rebounding down low should not be a problem now, and those are the two primary advtanges Boozer brings to the table. Additionally, if he played passably well on D, there'd be much more motivation to get him. Problem is, he doesn't much and even when he's 'on' defensively, he doesn't block or alter many (read:any) shots.

Besides the fact moving Manu for yet another big leaves gaping holes in the backcourt.

Healthy Manu-Healthy Boozer..... no

Injured Manu-Healthy Boozer.... yes

[TIMMYD!]

I just thought of something even if Tim plays at center next year he can still make the all-star team because Yao Ming won't be there.

[I. Hustle]

I doubt Manu would do any good as a GM and RC just doesn't look like a baller to me. Maybe when he was younger but this makes no sense to me.

llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[2muchDuncan]

No way.

[jacobdrj]

injured manu > healthy boozer

+1

[MmP]

Also Boozer health is just as bad as Ginobili's. I would trade Jefferson for Boozer and Korver, not Manu.

As bad? Wherer did Manu got the fcking reputation of an Injury prone??
The guys has had only 1 serious injury in his carreer and he's soft. I don't get it.
From 25 to 30 he's been as healthy as few in the league, give him a rest.

Duncan has played Center to some degree (or more) for years. He'll stay listed as the Power Forward for all Spurs games and as a Forward on the All-Star ballot.

Boozer is not a Spur.

He is short on character.

The Spurs look at more than simply talent, age and potential, they look at the intangibles and Boozer falls short there.

[SequSpur]

yeah...I would definitely trade Manu for him. It's not even a tough sell or hard to think about... , Tony Parker for Boozer also.

[Dex]

The best player in the NBA for a drunk?

Sounds like somebody here is the boozer.

Yuckity yuck yuck.

[DynastySpurs210]

WTF!!! LOLZ

uh nah were fine wut we got!! we dont need more pf!!
were only missing 2 pieces to our puzzle and its Raja Bell/ Marcus Campy

[exstatic]

Boozer is just a post scoring version of Bonner. He doesn't do anything else to make his team better, and is a turnstile on defense.

[rayray2k8]

I liked you better when you didn't talk.

[Pucho!!!]

Get Boozer for a yr, watch him miss defensive assignments and definitely lose him next summer to a suitor with a larger money bag or keep Manu for a yr, have him go off this season becuz he feels he's got sumthing to prove and prolly have him 2-3 more years after while he shows r new SGs (de Colo for one) the ropes...I'd rather have Manu!

[Sisk]

pretty sure this oozes with sarcasm..

[Spursfan092120]

lol @ the baited thread.

[spursfan1000]

LOL parker for him. LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO

[spursfan1000]

No. Boozer plays no defense once so ever and we are already stacked on big men.
