Sheltiedave Posted October 29, 2004 Share Posted October 29, 2004 The bad spin is he is not paying the piper with an "in house" suspension. I have seen players suspended, but their infraction and penalty was such that they still practiced, but spent game time plucking splinters out of their arse. Losing a month from a five month season is a real killer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetorch Posted October 29, 2004 Share Posted October 29, 2004 I have to agree with Roy here on Izik. He may have been our best low post help defender as he was the only one quick enough to get over and block shots but guarding someone straight up on the blocks was not a strong suit of Izik's. I remember being impressed with his perimeter defense a couple times, especially against Butler, but I never saw Izik really stand up to a player in the post with any effectiveness. Frericks would have to be our best low post guy while JJ showed he could do it in short stretches last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetorch Posted October 29, 2004 Share Posted October 29, 2004 While technically there is still a chance JJ will come back and play it will be tough for him. He will be a month behind on drills, plays, and most of all conditioning. By the time he is ready to contribute even a little the season will be half over. If he wanted a good time to get out, it would be now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
