Boone* is Proving His Doubters Wrong

[pegs]

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (NetsDaily)</div><div class='quotemain'>The Pacers’ defense (or lack thereof) is certainly deserving of some of the credit for Josh Boone’s career-high 26 points (on 9-of-12 shooting) on Wednesday, but Boone should get most of it. Devin Harris says he’s never had a teammate who can catch and finish like Boone. “He does some really weird stuff,” Harris says, “and he’s smart. He’s smart.”</div>

Gotta give Josh props for getting a career high.

So true. Why people doubt him and look over him just doesn't make any sense to me.

Actually, his college coach, Jim Calhoun, said he left too early. Maybe you should read the article.

Lol this came out right on time to basically bitch my other thread out about him starting. I still think he really needs to get into the weight room and get a lot stronger.

It's nice to have a point guard talk up his players like that. Reminds me of Cassell.

Pretty crazy that he could have started the season in a suit yet now he's playing so well.

Nice of Devin too.

IMO he's far from athletic. To earn my respect he better get his ass in the weight room and live there in the offseason. I gotta give him a fair shot though since he hasn't really had a successful offseason yet.

Boone deserves all the praise he's getting.
