mrjoelabs Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 This isn't working with him as a heavy minutes player. Use him off the bench for instant offense. Get TJ back in there. And Ford nice job wasting a career night from Francis drkelsey55 likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billikenbill Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Agree, it’s been brick city for far too long. Makes some excellent drives but his shot has gotten progressively worse. drkelsey55 likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoosierPal Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 8 minutes ago, wgstl said: Bench or give rest? there’s a difference I have posted this before, Jimerson has now played almost 300 minutes more this season than in his first two seasons combined. He NEEDED rest throughout this season. Ford could have shaved 5 minutes off his time a dozen or so games this season. At this point there is no reason to bench him. It is too late to recover the legs. The opponent will still commit maybe their best perimeter defender to Jimerson. So at least there is that. Williams needed more minutes earlier this season. Asking him to come off the bench and do magic now isn't going to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd do one of these two things since we don't play till Wednesday, hopefully GJ doesn't practice until we play RI or Give Williams the minutes, and see if we can keep GJ on the bench, play him at the end if we need. The first one is ideally the one, 4 days of rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't go too well. To me, Jimerson is the 5th best defender of our normal starting five. So while I agree that Williams isn't a defensive stopper, the bar isn't at a Thatch level.

My angle was simply trying to get a player to take it easy, to sit during practice, isn't the easiest thing to do. Bess was hurt and Ford wanted him to minimize his exposure. Didn't happen like Ford wanted. wgstl likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree more Hargrove less Jimerson until he regains his shot. At Richmond Jimerson had 37 minutes and Hargrove had 11 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOSLU68 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Jimmerson’s legs are gone- he had a great first half last game he kept them close; after half he was spent. Anyone wonder if he is hurt? His biggest problem is we have no other offensive threat other than Okoro in the paint. He was our best player first half and no we can’t get 5 minutes back from the previous 15 games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnkielBreakers Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Not a fan of this thread. We lost the game because we turned the ball over too much, Gibson Jimerson had ZERO turnovers. Everyone else had at least 1. Nesbitt, Hargrove, and Thatch cannot combine for 4 TO’s and Jones absolutely can’t have 2 of them in 8 minutes.

GOSLU68 Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 I would give Hargrove more of Nesbits minutes unless he starts to rebound. JNes tries hard but like some freshen players not much works out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
