Before my head falls off, Jizzy why do you think Boone's interior defense is soft? While that might be a popular heuristic to use based on his traditional play, I do not feel it accurately represents his current level of play due to recent progressions.
 
So can we all agree please that JB will be a key part of the nets for years to come? I am sick and tired of having to worry about JB and D-League and overseas.

Everyone agrees on something? Impossible. Boone has surprised me this season, and has out performed my expectations, but being "a key part of the Nets for years to come" is the kind of talk about a franchise big, and that is a label I cannot put on him at this time.

But I'll be rooting that he does.

I'm thrilled with the way he has been playing, and I think he is finding a niche with this team, but I think he has limited upside. He definitely can contribute to a winning team, but again, other than offensive rebounding he doesn't have an above-average skill. He's a smart kid, though, and a hard worker, so I'm sure that he'll continue to work on his weakneses.

On defense, it seems like he defends the block well, but has trouble when he has to switch onto another man, and seems to often leave someone wide open.

Say what you want about Collins: Twin was the defensive quarterback. If you watch, when he's in the game, he is constantly shouting out defensive assignments. I think that when Twin isn't in the game, the interior defenders get crossed up a lot. The Nets give up a LOT of uncontested points in the paint, and often they come from making a second or third pass, and Boone or Sean get confused as to where they should be. It's not surprising given how young and inexperienced Sean and Booooone are, but that's where they really need to improve defensively. Of course, it's possible I'm misreading it, given that I now fall asleep before the end of the first quarter (NOT kidding). I wake up when the stupid League Pass logo comes on at the end of the game. The stupid background music is too damn loud.

i think he gets pushed around a tad much in the paint, he's a good rebounder but his defense is iffy. if he gains some upper body weight, he'll be alright

He hasn't been. He's been keeping big guys away from the basket very effectively. Watch closely and see if you don't change your mind. He's really improved.

If you want to watch a skinny guy get thrown around like a rag doll, watch Sean Williams.

Well...that all depends on if he is injured and needs surgery in the offseason again. Like the past 2 offseasons. Which is pretty lame if you ask me.

exactly my point. he needs to spend the offseason locked in the weightroom.

Sorry. I confused you with Jizzy. You both have five letter names ending in "y" and animated hand-drawn avatars.
