Booker' Contribution

**CycloneErik** · 02-16-2013, 03:49 PM

Looks like I get the postgame Booker thread! Now I have arrived!

I was excited to see Anthony check in and contribute today. The foul calls seemed pretty picky, but I thought he did a nice job overall. He played within himself, got some nice rebounds, and did a good job overall.

Keep up the good work, King Booker!

The first foul he had called on him was a foul. He had pushed the guy with his other hand. If he kept it down, it woulda been clean. Other than that, they were BS calls.

I was really happy to seem him get good, legit minutes. He needs it to get his confidence back up.

I wished we could of set up play were he could of got a back screen for a dunk or something. Anything actually to get him in the right state of mine because we need him.

I'm disappointed in my typing there. I blame Hoiberg for coaching me poorly on this. With a better, more substantive coach, I would have learned more about the fundamentals of typing instead of spending time lost in the dreaminess.

you started well but seemed like in the last 5 letters you really struggled and thats where you really effed up

Yeah, good minutes from him today. Played within himself and the context of the game. He's shown he can make the 3, so I don't have a problem with that shot. It looked like it was halfway down before spinning back out anyway.

And, I thought Percy played well today too. I ripped him mercilessly after Wednesday night, but I thought he played well today and even had a nice block down low. Didn't force any mind-boggingly dumb shots (I'll give him a pass on the 3 there at the end).

He just wanted to be able to sit with everyone else on the bus.

Good to see him play well!

Lot of chatter for a guy that played 11 minutes, was 0-1 from the field, 2 boards and 3 fouls. I hope he gets his head together and can contribute but he's almost turning into the basketball version of Bo Williams lately. There are reasons he is not seeing the floor, we may not know them but you gotta trust that the coaching staff knows what they are doing.

He's no all star, but i'd rather he be in over percy 'wtf is a pass' gibson.

I'd rather see Niang and Ejim stay out of foul trouble so we don't have to play either of them heavy minutes to be honest. They both have their weaknesses, just depends on the situation on who is a better play at the time. I think Percy while sometimes a black hole on offense offers a more physical presence near the basket on offense than Booker does. Booker can stretch the defense a little with his 3 point shooting too. Hopefully finally getting back on the court for some minutes lately motivates him because he's sleep walked through most of the season as far as his effort has shown.
