Bruce's "So Called" New Shorter Rotation

JR is the strongest player on the team and gives 110% everytime he is on the floor.

Strong doesn't mean **** when you cant score, cant make a lay up, foul your guy 25 feet from the basket, be left unguarded because we know he isn't going to shoot the ball.

Yeah, the national title they won in 98 with Saul at back-up PG was an atrocious result. He only started his senior year at point because quite frankly, he was the best option with J.P Blevins being the back up option. True, Smith wasn't that good, but its a horrible comparison to make.

Saul took alot of unjustified abuse while playing at KY. He was a much better player than Pearl. I agree that this is a horrible comparison.

Here in lies the stupidity of the basketvol fanbase. A guy that cant do those things and knows he cant. Is a whole lot better than a guy who cant do those things and thinks he can. Forget the fasct that Pearl has sparked our team as recently as belmont and we wouldnt have won the basketball game without him. A certain player CAN score. Forget the fact that he has done nothing except miss terribly on basically every attempt. He CAN do it.

Pearl should never see the floor at this level. He has the talent of a scout team player

Well he plays d-1 ball and hes been more effective than half of the guys you want to take all his minutes.

Regarding Maymon vs Pearl... I'd like to see stat lines per 40 minutes on both for an accurate comparison to know for sure, but from my perspective Pearl has been more productive, provides more of a spark, and doesn't shoot wild, airball 3's. Maymon finds himself out of position way too much, and hasn't seemed to gel the way I was hoping. Maymon is just as inept a FT shooter as Pearl, and doesn't bring the same tenacious defense as Pearl. IMO, Maymon to scout is a good move and will hopefully help Tobais out in honing in on his defensive prowess.

its pearl vs maymon vs hall. None of them are great and they should combine for like 12 minutes just to spell harris. Who is also playing some dissapointing basketball. But although hall and maymon are much more talented than pearl they arent doing many more positives than him on the floor. And they are both doing more negatives. Not sure what the inate ability of a player means. Its about production both good and bad. Pearl has earned as many minutes as the other 2.

Great post. I don't get all the complaining about Pearl Jr. getting minutes, he is the least of the problems of why we are not winning.

lol. If Pearl would set more plays for Harris, we wouldn't lose to the Charlestons of the world.

or if our guys would move without the ball more... Its like they think its the NBA. 4 guys standing around, and 1 guy drives and shoots.

Looking forward to seeing Steven "Daddy's Boy" Pearl take the court tonight he's such a joy to watch his game reminds me of Gannon Goodson only that Goodson was much better.... GBO and Daddys Boy

It's safe to say when Stevie is in the game our motionless offense loses a viable stationary option. How great is that for opposing coaches? Rest a big with foul trouble or sag and help on penetration.

What we lose is toby harris. But harris must brake. Its either pearl or guys who throw up wild shots constantly and make none.
