Woolridge

I really do not see any reason that he should play unless we are having injury problems or foul trouble. If someone can inform of something that he contributes that pearl or hall cannot produce, I will be open to changing my opinion. Fire away!

He is longer than Pearl and so far is a better rebounder than Hall this season. He is long and can provide good d. He can also run very well for a big. If he quits jacking 3s he will be a good contributor.

Kenny Hall- 28 minutes played,11points,10 rebounds.

Renaldo Woolridge- 47 minutes played,8 points,7 rebounds.

Steven Pearl-54 minutes played,12 points,6 rebounds.

Pearl has one less rebound and is a better defender than Woolridge.

Hall has more production in half the minutes.

Sorry to say this but your argument stinks in this case

When did hall get all those boards? I missed that.

I thought hall would be really good this year.

I do not think any of the 3 are bad. I have enjoyed watching all of them.

Fields and maymon I think will be better than all 3 and keep them off the court for the most part.

Let me be clear here, pearl and hall are very average players. I just think that Woolridge is below average and does not merit the minutes that he detracts from those two. Have you ever heard of the lesser of the evils?

sit him down. i don't know why in the world we are playing 10 and 11 every game. i only hope that maymon has saome offensive game in him,. i think maymon's defense will be o k from what i've heard. 16 days and counting till we can get wiper boy off the court for the year. walker plays 37 minutes a game for u conn, why can't our players do that ? their will be time to rest after the season. i'm sorry, but i'm old school and a long time ago , players played 35 minutes a game and did just fine !! when i see mcbee, wiper, pearl and hall come in, i hold my breath. just to add to this, if wiper had 10 % of his dad's talent, then he would deserve more minutes !!!

Pearl is not a good defender. He's not athletic enough to play at this level

Just exactly what have you seen from Woolridge that would make you think that he is a better defender than pearl?

I felt like Pearl played one of the better games of his career last night. I would much rather have him in at this point than Woolridge.

They are both a huge liability on offense but Pearl makes up for it with his experience, he's a very smart player just lacks talent.

he does play hard, but just like the rest of this team, he blows too many layups. i have never understood how 6' 2" to 6"10" players blow layups !!

woolridge is doing a better job on the boards lately, plus actually playing some half court D. he just need to tone down his jacking up the three ball. we need his length down low to get some put backs.

Agreed. But he made more good plays yesterday than bad, and I'll take that out of him for sure.

No reason Brian Williams should ever miss some of the layups he did, we'll need to clean all that mess up if we're going to beat Nova.
