the match ups? Supposably Stotts doesn't thing Hickson can play this pace of game. Meyers got 16 minutes tonight also. Freeland got 13 minutes. Might this be coming from the front office to play the young guys more?
Re: Chris Haynes says JJ Hickson plays less then 16 minutes because Stotts doesn't li A lot of games Hickson plays huge minutes. Some games he doesn't. I think it has to do more about matchups at this point. I wouldn't get suspicious unless he got little minutes 3 or more games in a row.
Re: Chris Haynes says JJ Hickson plays less then 16 minutes because Stotts doesn't li Well we could have used his rebounding tonight.
Re: Chris Haynes says JJ Hickson plays less then 16 minutes because Stotts doesn't li It seems like it's been more than 3 games. I love my hero and Stotts is discriminating against him.
Re: Chris Haynes says JJ Hickson plays less then 16 minutes because Stotts doesn't li We were outscored by ten in the 15 minutes he was on the floor. We went on runs with Freeland and Leonard. Not sure how Stotts can be criticized.
Re: Chris Haynes says JJ Hickson plays less then 16 minutes because Stotts doesn't li I can just see Stotts running the team your way. "Kaleb! What's Hickson's +/- so far?" "And that's a negative, Boss! Negative niner going on tenner! Can I be coach if you get sick? It'll look good on my resumé." "Negative ten! Yank him! Get me Freeland and Babbitt!" "Don't sue me! I'm trying to look head coachlike!" "Not a law firm, fool! They are players you've never seen! They have a positive +/-!" "Brilliant, boss! Freeland and Babbitt are better than Hickson! Right!"
Re: Chris Haynes says JJ Hickson plays less then 16 minutes because Stotts doesn't li Chris Haynes said it over the phone on Talkin' Ball, pretty much word-for-word. You should know better than to question BGD's sources. Te'o's girlfriend would have.
Re: Chris Haynes says JJ Hickson plays less then 16 minutes because Stotts doesn't li Freeland played more minutes because he played great last game. They all play spot minutes and if they play well, the play more that game and then the next. That was the case with Freeland.
Re: Chris Haynes says JJ Hickson plays less then 16 minutes because Stotts doesn't li Could be motivational tactic. It seem like Hickson rarely has more than one or two bad games in a row. He seems extra motivated when coming off a bad game, or after getting his PT cut back. He responded with a career high 21 rebounds tonight. BNM
Re: Chris Haynes says JJ Hickson plays less then 16 minutes because Stotts doesn't li Blazers aren't going to make the playoffs. Freeland is under contract for 2 more years, Hickson will be testing the free agent market this summer. Play Freeland to develop. Bench Hickson to decrease his value and see if you can get him cheap this summer . . . it's a business.
