Carlos Boozer has set some lofty goals for the Bulls heading into the 2010-11 season.

"A championship," Boozer said Wednesday.

"I think a realistic goal for us is a championship. I think anything shorter than that we're setting ourselves up to be shorter than what we can reach. I think [we have] potential to be a championship-level team."

Boozer is confident because of 21-year-old point guard Derrick Rose.

"He's tight," Boozer said. "He can play. With our combination of what we have on our team, with myself in the post, with D. Rose at the point guard spot, Joakim [Noah] plugging that middle up, Luol Deng  being very versatile on the wing, I think we have a team that can rival anybody. I think we'll be able to compete against every team in the league."
