Free-agent fits: Bucher's Top 20
By Ric Bucher
ESPN Insider
2. Carlos Boozer, PF, Jazz (UFA)
His game: Equally adept at pick-and-roll and pick-and-pop. Confidence-based
jump shooter -- when he's feeling it, he knocks them down, but when he's
not, his shot is way off. Better inside when he can body an opponent.
Average on-the-ball defender, not a shot-blocking or ball-hawking presence.
Exceptional offensive rebounder, especially off his own shots, and strong on
boards overall.
Right system: The more structured, the better, but he needs a similarly
versatile big next to him. Has to have a dominant playmaker to use all his
strengths and a shot-blocking center to protect his defensive weaknesses.
Ideally, he's the second or third option, even though he would like to be the
first. Needs an organization that advertises its belief in him publicly and
privately.
Wrong system: One in which he's not at least the second option or in which
public critiques by coach/GM/owner are accepted.
He's an elephant: He never
forgets. Long bigs who can match his agility give him fits, which is why he
can't be a team's only front-line threat.
Best fits: Cavaliers, Lakers, Celtics, Magic, Grizzlies, Jazz
6. Mehmet Okur, C, Jazz (UFA)
His game: Versatile scorer, particularly lethal on pick-and-pops and weakside
3s, but has a serviceable post game against slower bigs.
Deceptively nimble.
Also a deceptively effective passer. Makes an effort to defend the ball but
is nonexistent giving help. Decent defensive rebounder.
Right system: Ideally a pick-and-roll-dominated offense in which he is
the third option, although he's capable of being the No. 2 guy next to a
shot-blocking power forward. Also needs a dominant point guard who can draw
the defense and allow him to go one-on-one or shoot on the catch. Needs plays
run for him to get shots.
Wrong system: A one-on-one dominated attack that doesn't allow offense to be
a form of defense or expects him to score off rebounds. Okur won't lock down
anybody or break anyone down, so he needs an offense that gets him shots in
general -- and 3s, in particular -- to win his matchup.
Best fits: Jazz, Warriors, Bulls, Cavaliers, Magic, Spurs, 76ers, Suns
15. Paul Millsap, PF, Jazz (RFA)
His game: Space-eater around the rim. Tenacious rebounder, especially good
at cleaning up the offensive boards. Can score in the post but limited as a
passer. Face-up game is almost acceptable. No jumper beyond 15 feet. Not a
shotblocker but very good at keeping bigger, more talented players off the
block or away from their spots.
Right system: Needs shooters around him and a playmaking, penetrating point
guard. Works best in a structured system in which he has a well-defined,
contributing role.
Wrong System: An up-tempo, free-flowing offense or a defense without a
shotblocker or solid perimeter defenders. Has neither shotblocking chops nor
agility to help on dribble drives. Would get lost next to a post-dominating
big man.
Best Fits: Jazz, Blazers, Suns, Celtics, Pistons, Nuggets
