Sean getting the Boone treatment

When Josh came back from his injury and started playing he looked horrible. Frank benched him, playing him 5 mins per game and garbage time. Boone got the message and turned it around, now look at him.

Sean is going through that right now. He can't stay out of foul trouble and his spark seems to be gone. I hope Boone gives him some advice because I would hate to see him disappear until next year but he clearly doesn't deserve time right now.

I just hope he doesn't get depressed and turn to the chronic.

 

It happened to him earlier in the season too. Rookies get to comfortable and lazy and this is a good lesson for him.

 

He's just hit his rookie wall, he only played 15 games his last season in college, he'll be ok

 

He gon be fine.

 

It's not about hitting the rookie wall or Frank teaching him a lesson.

He has been getting into foul trouble early and has shown, repeatedly, that he is not very good at guarding the pick and roll.

Adding to that, the team has added two veteran big men, who are nearly as athletic as he his, in Swift and Diop. Think about the athleticism of the two players they replaced, Collins and Allen.

The Nets have remade their roster in two weeks, adding Swift, Harris, Diop, Hassell and Ager while losing Collins, Kidd, Allen, Wright and Magloire. The distinction between the two groups should be quite obvious.

 

Wow are we actually saying this is a good move by Frank?? This is a rare occasion..

Well, now we have better options to go to. Anything but Malik Allen. Really.

 

I believe Diop needs to stay in the rotation with a good number of minutes. Swift and Sean should be battling for the remaining ones.
