why is booker regarded so highly on theze boards?

[cleek+wall]

He is only a hustler-player. He cant shoot or create his own shot. Hes never going to be a go to guy. A pretty good bench player though

SO STOP IT SO STOP IT PLEAZE HE ISNT THAT GOOD! Now kevin is a beast in the making and vesley>>>booker. Vesley has a better feel for the game

[Mizerooskie]

Booker's a 2nd year player who was #36 in PER at the PF position in the NBA. Only two players above him (Ayon at 31 and Ibaka at 16) have a lower usage rate.

He's a solid rotation player right now, and could turn into a solid starter with higher usage. As a late first-rounder, he doesn't need to be a go-to guy. He's fine.

You criticize Booker because he can't shoot or create his own shot, then you sing JV's praises?

[montestewart]

Booker hit a near-half court three at the buzzer. Can you do that? Can Vesely shoot or create his own shot? Who is saying Booker is sooooo good? Not me. But you...you may as well come right out and say he's bad. Which he isn't. Which makes you wrong. Come back when you're right. Booker will be waiting for you.

PS: Welcome to the board.

He's a beast he hustle he plays d he a solid role player for us. It's more to basketball then just shooting he is valuable for a playoff team cause he does all the dirty work you want in a player.

[7-Day Dray]

He improved a lot last season.

I agree he's a solid rotation player.

I disagree strongly that he can turn into a solid starter. You could certainly start him, but he'd clearly be in the lower third of starting PFs in the league. He just doesn't have the size to matchup against many of the starting frontcourts in the league.

I have no problem keeping Booker, but I have no problem with using Booker (easily our best trade asset) to try to upgrade at other positions of need.

[Benjammin]

In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. Seriously, though, as Dat pointed out he's a solid rotation player as a reserve. As a starter, he's below average. So, if they can flip him for close to equal value at a position of greater need, I would do it, but I wouldn't give him away either.

Great! Another thread started under one his sock-puppets.

[penbeast0]

Because for most of the year, while Kevin was languishing on the bench, Vesely playing with a PER down around 5, Crawford jacking everything he touched, CSingleton standing around watching the other guys player, and Wall trying to play hero ball every 4th quarter and bricking every shot over 15 feet, and of course Dumb and Dumberer making "Wow, Great Play" every 5 plays but "Nooooooo" every three -- Booker was all we had to root for in terms of playing up to his potential.

So, we loved him. Now, he may get jilted as some of our other players start playing better but he was our most reliable player for over half the year. Not the greatest, that would be Wall, but the most reliable.

Now you're trying to say his mother was the bigger bang? Don't let him catch you.

So I'll go ahead and be that guy, what's with the "Z's"?

Also am I to understand that Trevor is both a hustler and a player, or is he some sort of hybrid that can't properly be placed in either category?

[Ruzious]

Booker is more of a hybrid tweener energy player - using the appropriate applicable hoops parlance, Ed.

Well according to cosmo he's so sexxxy that apparently he can even hustle players. Or play hustlers. Or both.
