Three nights after being ousted by the Lakers, several Jazz players -- including Carlos Boozer -- frolicking at B.E.D. in South Beach on Monday, with Boozer picking up the $1,500 beer and Grey Goose tab.

So? What's wrong with that? (Partying in Miami, Florida)
Perhaps they should have waited a week or two, perhaps until the Playoffs are over, as a sign of courtesy.
After all, three measly days makes it look as if they wanted to party right away, which is not a good image.
On the other hand, at least they waited to party _after_ their playoff run, unlike Carmelo Anthony, who was partying and getting in trouble just days _before_ the playoffs started. The Jazz did play hard, and at least they left it all on the floor. It's not as if they threw away the series. But, it would have been better to wait more than three days, because there may be conspiracy theorists who would allege that they simply wanted to get the series over with so they could head to Miami.

In the big picture, with a name like "Boozer", of course you're going to party hardy as soon as possible, win or lose in the Playoffs.
Why do you think he is called the "Boozer" ?
You gotta be careful whom you have leading your team. You choose the Boozing man to be the players' leader, and you're going to have problems with them partying rather than respecting the Playoffs.
You choose Duncan to lead your team, and the only problem you got is the players following his lead and ordering donuts. That's something a lot easier to live with, because the players will burn off those donuts every hard practice.

Yeah- he is taking some free time and enjoying his off season. $1500 is not a large tab for beer and grey goose. Did he get a DUI or get busted for pot? Nope! Enjoy the offseason and get ready to battle in the WEST

May 21, 2008  08:46 AM ET

I don't see how this is a story.......

May 21, 2008  08:55 AM ET

Great Story Guys!!! Keep me informed on how many Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches, Okur has eaten in the offseason.

So what that not a big tab for a club like B.E.D you can spend $3,000-$4,000 easy in there.

And they actually paid somebody to write this crap? What was Boozer supposed to do...stay in freaking Salt Lake City and party in the snow????

May 21, 2008  09:42 AM ET

The season is over. What Boozer does is his business, and what's $1500 to him? He probably had that much in his ashtray.

May 21, 2008  09:51 AM ET

This is a story? Must be real desperate. What's next? Lebron James was spotted eating a BigMac? lmao.

May 21, 2008  09:56 AM ET

So what? Their just drinking away their sorrows.

May 21, 2008  10:06 AM ET

So Boozer and his buddies have an end of the year party. No strippers, no making it rain, no gunshots, no fighting and no DWI's. Just a fun night of hanging out with friends. So whats the big deal??? They should be applauded for not acting like asses like many pro atheletes do!

The NBA lottery happened yesterday but apparently this is more important. Things like the Wolves drafting Mayo or Lopez and the look on D'antoni's face during the draft could have been better updates than this.
