And the only reason I would play Wiley is because of what I said - the other guys fouled out (I think) last time against this team and we would need someone to stand there. And I have no idea what this has to do with Gus. often CBP will let the game keep going because he wants to encourage the up-tempo to continue and let us go on a run of our own. Doesn't want to slow the game with timeouts. WIth the experience we have on the floor, I'm generally good with him letting them go, but at times a reset is needed.

Guess you did not notice that AW was out there playing a week ago when he could barely get off the floor ...not even able to dunk. As I said before, there is no reason for AW to play...risk further injury and JMO, but disrupts the team when he can barely jump or defend.

JMO but AW has nothing to gain by playing and not worth the risk. . Apples and oranges as long as wiley can’t injure himself he might can provide some positive minutes. Only CBP knows.

JMO but nobody knows in advance.....so it's up to CBP to decide whether to take the chance ….or not..... because there seems to be no doubt that AW is not 100%.

cole256 17,084 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Well depending on the opponent his size alone can be a great benefit. His making one sometimes two guys to block him helps other guys particularly the 4. His length changes shots, that helps. There's a bunch that Wiley does that benefits the team but people don't want to see it. I remember people being hard on cinemon Bowers the same way though so at least it's not personal, just don't like big men Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
