Why did we draft Josh Boone, anyway?

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

This is a big year for Boone. If Williams comes in and shows us something, which most people think he will, Boone will need to at least match that, or he'll be plastered to the end of the bench. And he needs to stay healthy.</p>

Let's expect the power of Josh Boone, and Sean Williams. The violent two brothers, if we play them together, they are good rebounding, blocking, and defense duo.</p>

i love that monicker... "The Violent Two Brothers" ... kinda like those kung-fu flicks i used to watch when i was younger ... like "The Kid With The Golden Arm" haha...</p>

Anyway, I'd like to join the Josh Boone bandwagon...I did say he will be our 10-10-2 guy over at the other board and will not hurt the nets by shooting at a high percentage...didnot dare to make anypredictions about his free throws though...</p>
 
Boone sucked vs. Charlotte. what happened?</p>

Hahaha, that's good, jerkstore</p>

Just wondering. As some boards are not allowed to link to other boards.</p>
 
I'm beginning to think he's just a different pro player. He was the Defensive Player of the Year in the Big East, but has he played any defense in the NBA? I'm not saying he's a liabilty, and I know he's behind Collins, but you never see Boone on the opposing teams best big even if Collins is on the bench. Why is that? He showed last year he was decent off the pick and roll. This year not so much. Where did it go? I've been rooting hard for Boone to succeed,but I have to say he confuses the hell out of me.</p>
 
He has a minor injury, and Frank is obviously trying to give Malik Allen a chance to prove he can shoot. Boone is what he is, though; a complimentary piece. I wonder if we'll see more of him when Marcus comes back.</p>
 
Boone is soft, mentally and physically. He's still a stick and he can't rebound, surprising since he was considered the best Offensive rebounder out of last years draft.</p>
 
Boone is playing very bad right now but I can't just give up on him. He has the tools all he needs is to put it together.</p>
 
Boone just need Marcus. I don't care Boone's rebounding ability, but his turnover prone makes me to spit the blood.</p>

I didn't say he is not a good rebounder, but last time he was on the court, he lost the ball too often. Terrible hands.</p>

Is calling people mentally soft/weak your new schtick?</p>

Haha, I love your posts.</p>
 
I say dont judge Boone yet until Marcus comes back. he seems to play best when marcus is on the floor(though someone would have to get stats on that, since im not 100% sure0</p>
 
We drafted Boone as someone to have false excitement and hope towards until Sean got here. </p>

It will be a field day of alley-oops with Marcus passing to Sean and Boone.

Right now Boone's days in NJ are numbered or else he can come into gameswith lots of energyapart from that, we could trade him for a second round pick</p>

</div></p>

We just picked up his option. We don't trade him for a pick because then we have 12 people on our roster, and 2 of them are out with injuries.</p>

</p>
 
Marcus and Boone obviously went to UCONN together so they already have the chemistry. And now Marcus and Sean are close since they both had drug problems so hopefully there chemistry there.. Just imagine the future wit Marcus running point and just chucking it up to SWat for the alley or let Boone work the block. They are also outstanding rebounders so far. Our defense would be ridiculous if Marcus could improve.</p>

Future Starters? (If Wright stays)</p>

PG: Marcus Williams or a bigger line-up --> PG: Marcus Williams</p>

SG: Antoine Wright SG: Richard Jefferson</p>

SF: Richard Jefferson SF: Boki Nachbar</p>

PF: Sean Williams / Josh Boone PF: Sean Williams / Josh Boone</p>

C: Sean Williams / Josh Boone C: Sean Williams / Josh Boone</p>

</p>

DAMN THAT TOOK FOREVER TO TYPE SO U BETTER READ THE DAMN THING!</p>
 
yeaaa... that line-up came out weird.. my bad</p>
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (NJNETS51)</div><div class='quotemain'></p>

PF: Sean Williams / Josh Boone PF: Sean Williams / Josh Boone</p>

C: Sean Williams / Josh Boone C: Sean Williams / Josh Boone</p>

</div></p>

That's quite a rotation you got there</p>
