HAWKS1986 Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 He is a shot blocker. He is 6'10, but why hasn't he gotten more playing time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BusBoyIsBack Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Because it would make too much sense to play him. Woodson = Jim Mora. Solomon Jones = Jimmy Williams. Promising rookie that doesn't get playing time over terrible starter because it would make too much sense to use him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrReality Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Seems like Woody has to have one player that is always in that position. Last year it was the guard that we released and went to Detroit. There is no doubt in my mind that if Solo got 10-12-15 minutes a night he would get better and mature.

DJlaysitup Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Woody is tanking now (IMO). Once JJ missed the all star game Woody/BK are shooting for the pick. BK wants 26+ but not much more. He can blame the overall lack of improvement on injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Mule Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Why don't the Hawks clean out Woody's dog house and send them to the D. League?? This is the second young player that has apparently ended up "In the doghouse." Hawks can have two players under contract and in the D. league. Who do we have there now? If these two players went down, played every game, got the experience they would obtain there and really looked great, we would be be so happy, wouldn't we. But, on the other hand, Woody can leave them gathering splinters on the end of the bench, refuse to let them in a game, then no one "Really" knows what is going on. Punish the players and save face all at the same time! Ain't life great in the doghouse!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNorthCydeRises Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 solo should definitely be in d-league if he isn't going to see 10 minutes a game. but we as fans don't see behind the scenes. if lo and zaza outplay him in practice, them he shouldn't play in the game. i say play the kid anyway. he is only 230 lbs though, and would have the same problem with big men that smoove has guarding them. i'd put solo in whenever the 2nd team went to zone, and let him roam the middle. if ivey can see spot minutes at the point, surely solo can get some spot minutes.

bfwolf Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Does it really matter if Zaza and Lo are outplaying Jones in practice if Jones is playing better in games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He scored 50 in the league! I do agree that Jones needs to play waay more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Mule Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 Batista has dibs on the preferred place in the doghouse. He's been there all season. Now we have 2 there. Send them to the D League if they can't play. Batman doesn't even dress for the games. Sits on the bench in suit and tie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
