I'm kinda torn on this one. On one end, it absolutely was a bad idea for the Cavs, though I can see why they would do it. On the other hand, I can see why Boozer would void the verbal agreement, I would have a hard time turning down Utah's offer. At the same time, I find it an almost despicable thing to do, being that the only reason Cleveland voided the third year was that they had a verbal agreement.
