    Booker threads are becoming equivalent to "Let me mayor coach" both just need to stop.

    Re: Booker

    This thread should be here. The man earned some recognition and respect. That's the purpose here.

    It's not the 10 millionth body language thread.

    I hope we see more Booker on Saturday.

    To be honest, we need Booker bad next game. They play rough in Manhattan, we can't look for contact fouls down there like at the Hilton. Angel will be fouling on every play.

    Me and my friends cringe when he gets the ball and is promptly doubled.

    Not unless we force them to go small again like we did in Hilton. Their bigs hardly played.

    Re: Booker

    I have done some speculating on certain things on this forum as well, and you know what?? I will never do that again. It can be damaging to the team or players if they read these posts. Who knows, Book might read posts on here.. Enough is enough.

    I fee like Weber will feel that it was a mistake and he'll try to go big against us more. If our outside shots are falling he'll be forced to go small, but if not, then he can keep a big line up and pound it inside.

    We don't need Booker bad, if we are going to play with the same game plan as we used when we played them up here.

    Re: Booker

    i don't love these threads either and am glad people are supporting the guy. booker played well last year, struggled at times this year, maybe playing out of position a bit at times. dude chose to come here, got his degreee, was a good student and did nothing wrong other than lose some minutes to niang. my guess is he will rally and finish strong and play a lot of important minutes, he is to talented and athletic to have sit the whole game, im really pulling for the guy.

    Re: Booker

    Everyone has a bad game sometimes. You gotta have depth to cover it. We will need Booker & Gibson when Ejim or Niang have an off-night.

    I thought some of Book's problems were rooted in trying to do a little too much. Going for the big block and getting a bad foul, etc. When he plays within himself, he's really a solid defender in the post. Sort of like Lucious - when he tries to be good he is really good, but when he tries to be great he makes mistakes. Just be good man, that's good enough.

    And there are post games for threads like that. Do we really need a single player thread for doing a good job or playing their role every game?

    Re: Booker

    Booker had a tweet tonight that said something like, "Been in a dump lately, and the crowd cheering me on really got me going/motivated/uplifted me and you have no idea how much I appreciate it, cyclONEnation!!" to that effect not exact quotes. He later tweeted, man i can't RT all these supportive tweets but know i see all of them and appreciated it

    If said player is ridden after every game, then yes, we really need a thread to single them out for some recognition and respect.

    This thread, like several games, needs more Booker.
