Boozer gets tweets, not deal, from Miami

While Carlos Boozer didn’t end up in Miami, one of his preferred destinations, the ex-Jazzman received Twitter props from two of his former U.S. Olympic teammates who’ll play for the Heat next season.

After the news broke that Boozer is Windy City-bound, Dwyane Wade tweeted: “Congts 2 1 of the greatest human beings I know “C Booz”. Chicago just won w/U.”

Booz received another congratulatory tweet from future Miami power forward Chris Bosh, who will sign with the Heat: “Congrats to my fellow gold medalist Carlos Boozer! Very happy for you and your family.”
