Hoping Pop could give D. Blair more minutes

[bless1187]

Is it just me because it seems like Pop refuse to play D. Blair for more than 15 minutes a game even when he is playing really well?!?! This reminds me of last year when i was hoping D. Gooden would be getting more time than M. Bonner, since he was actually outplaying M. Bonner by a stretch, but Pop just goes back to same old M. Bonner over and over again...

Well, he's hurt now, so maybe he shouldn't be on the floor. He's injury prone!!! OMG!!!

I think he got more yesterday than usually, but yeah I think he needs more minutes. Blair is doing great, it's just because of his minutes he simply does not get the chance to show more, which he can.

I thought Hairston needed more minutes, according to some post yesterday before the game?

To me, Blair is the argument for college ball. In just two years of Big East play, he learned SO much about playing effectively in the paint against bigger, taller players. He so smart about creating space for himself in the paint, both for scoring and rebounding. He throws his body into the shot blocker to keep him from elevating, or goes under the rim for a reverse to protect his shot. As big as he is, he's rarely anything but under control, when you might think he would take the bull in a china shop approach.

The Charlotte "ignore the coach" bought him time on the pine.
