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.

let's post in this thread more to make it legit

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.

 

[jarkid]

How about

Joshua Bomb ?

JOSHUA BOMB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Apocalypse™]

He really did great for us today.Would've been sexier if got more rebounds as I expected 15+ from him but oh well.I hope he continues.

J Blitz anyone ?

 

[ToddMacCulloch11]

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.

 

[GMJ]

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"

 

[ghoti]

19-13.

There's gonna be a riot if you gyp him two rebounds!

Actually, his proper name is Oscar.

 

[ghoti]

 

[Joey FistPump]

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.

 

[GMJ]

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

 

[jarkid]

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.

 

[Kid Chocolate]

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

The one thing about a Nets player exceeding your expectation is that the humble pie tastes delicious

I feel the same way.

Although I'd def take Boone over, pfft, Jamario Moon

Fundamentally flawed question. Boone is really a center whereas Millsap is exclusively a powerforward...I don't think Millsap would fit into the type of offense we run anyway...Sean Williams is a much better example for the kind of powerforwards we need on this team.

 

[JCB]

Millsap is awesome. No way I would take Boone over him.

 

[Kid Chocolate]

Pale Rider or Kid from Kid N Play?

Josh can play 4 and 5, he is that good.

And he can run the floor, and attack the rim around the basket, and not shoot from outsite,
he is poorman's acid trip induced vision of Dwight Howard.

This is correct.

If this was the Sats Boone would be to Howard what Ben Gordon is to Kobe Bryant.
Antione Wright to Kobe is like Malik Allen to Howard...

Malik Allen should be compared to Ray Allen (Bigger Version, Midrange Version).

LOL

 

[pegs]

KC, you're terrible at comparing NBA players to Actors. Just give up! haha.

Josh Boom tho had a good game, gotta give him props. Difference maker? Possibly.

 

[#1_Josh_Boone_Fan]

I cant say enough good things about Boonezellia.

GMJigga you are a man who i respect for your Double double conment, i wish others would be more like you.

Boonezellia is only getting better.
