Re: What's the deal with Randy Foye? I'm wondering, what's the deal with Randy Foye? Why isn't he playing? He is a guy that I though, and most though, would make a definite impact right away. Both Wolves games so far he's played under 10 minutes. So for anyone that knows, especially the couple Wolves fans we have, why isn't he playing?

The Wolves have Davis, James, Hudson, Jaric, and Hassell that all play guard, and that takes away minutes from Foye.
Re: What's the deal with Randy Foye? I understand that, but when you are a boarderline playoff team (I don't think the Wolves will be in the playoffs this year, again, damn I feel bad for KG) why not develope your rookie who has All-Star potential? Needless to say, Craig Smith is my boy and he's tearing it up! Wow, I didn't expect him to come in and get much time.

Also, this situation is very similar to McCants last year not getting very much time in the beginning, but his playing time progressing more and more as the year went on.And you can always count on a Troy Hudson injury.
Re: What's the deal with Randy Foye? I know he got time in preaseason and the summer, but once he becomes completely comfortable with the team and the offensive and defensive schemes, I think he will be challenged more and given more playing time. Also I think at some point, regardless of the how the team is doing, he will get a chance to establish himself.
