every game Boone looks a little better out there. He is getting pushed around less and less; is more assertive; and is handling passes better. He is defeinitely rounding into shape. Thank goodness, too. Hopefully next year, for a change, the Nets will stop with this one-year rent-a-big crap. Of course, who knows what whether we'll need a replacement for K.</p>

I'm sure Thorn hopes so too. We weren't sure what we had in Boone, Williams, and Krstic, thus the signings of Magloire and Allen. Williams play thus far basically eliminates Allen's spot next year. If Boone can consisitently produce in his minutes. We may go into next year with 5 bigs. Krstic, Collins, Williams, Boone, and.....for the final spot you're looking at a rookie or 2nd year player who won't see much time. The days of rent a big maybe over if Krstic can comeback strong post all star game.</p>
