The announcement was made this evening that Carlos Boozer is the newest player to be added to the Chicago Bulls roster. According to chicagotribune.com the 28-year-old signed a 5-year $76 million contract with the Bulls.
With Lebron James scheduled to annouce his decision tomorrow night, I can only assume that adding Boozer the night before was a strategic attempt to take away any doubts that the 25-year-old NBA superstar may have about Chicago. Adding Boozer who averaged 20.5 points and 11.2 rebounds for Utah last season to a team that already consist of outstanding players like Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah could unquestionably up the ante.
Chicago would be tempting to many but to someone like Lebron James who has such a wide variety of choices, this will undoubtly be a hard decision to make. Other great teams like the New York Knicks who recently added Amar’e Stoudemire, the Nets with young and talented players like Devin Harris and Brook Lopez, Miami who welcomed the return of Dwayne Wade and Cleveland who lead the league in wins all hope to add Lebron James to their roster.It will defintely be interesting to see what team King James will choose.
