    This is a pointless thread, but I like the nickname.

    Well, OK then.

    I really enjoyed watching him play. He was entertaining and I think he lifted up the entire team.

    He converted a bunch of very tough finishes and patrolled the paint like a legit center.

    He even gave it his best shot (even though it wasn't always pretty) trying to guard smaller, quicker players on the perimeter.

    He still has bizarre mental lapses, but there is more and more positive stuff coming from him.

    Boone, very, VERY good game! I'm pleased he could finish and knock down some darn free throws!

    This is the type of game I thought he was capable of when we drafted him...I remember I was at a bar with a couple of buddies and I saw on the espn scroll we had drafted Boone and Williams, I freaked out and was boasting how the Nets completely dominated the draft.

    Some very solid numbers for him...very encouraging to see.

    On a related note, I can't remember the last time they had three players in double digit rebounds.

    19 - 11. Word.

    He could have had more, but he soiled a couple of put backs. Still, he keeps this up we can label it "progression"

    Best game as a Net to date got second double double of his career, first of the season. Last year he scored a career high 22 and grabbed 10 rebounds but this performance easily outshines that one.

    alright boone_fan right as I say he couldn't average a double double when given the minutes he gets himself a serious one. Lets see if he can continue this, as I hope it was not just a fluke game. However, only time will tell

    JOSH BOONE THE SECOND COMING.

    He is just so great,

    He is much better than Collins

    I can't believe that we wasted many games for Collins.

    Imagine If we had gave enough time to Boone, what would he be right now?


    Paul Millsap and Josh Boone, which one do you prefer own right now?

    I go for Josh, because he is a better rebounder, taller, and can finish well.

    It takes a big man to make a statement like that...I was gonna bump that thread but this is good enough.

    I think I'd still take Millsap, but let's just say, I'm very happy with Boone, regardless.
