Carlos Boozer -- Offense 84, Defense 26
If you're somehow able to ignore Carlos Boozer's yelling on the court, you can actually hear opposing big men giggle in delight when they get to face the Chicago Bulls' defensively maligned big man. The Bulls have some of the best defending big men in the league in Joakim Noah, Taj Gibson and Omer Asik, and there's a reason why the Bulls did just fine with Boozer sidelined this season.
That isn't just a blip. For three years running now, Boozer's teams play better with him on the bench, despite his lofty scoring and rebound totals. This season in Chicago, the Bulls' defense has been about six points better with him riding the pine. The Bulls have four years and $61 million remaining on his contract.
