how well the Sixers do when Willie Green doesn't play?
Two wins without him. Hmmmm.....

Two wins isn't big enough a win total to assume that Green not playing is a factor

Yeah. This was a pointless post.

Well, I think the question is, who do you want to give more playing time to...Rodney or Willie. From what I have seen the past few weeks, Rodney makes mistakes, but plays much better defense and is overall more active while Willie is kind of one dimensional in his one on one offensive abilities. That can be great in some situations, like the clock is running down and someone needs to get a shot off, but overall, Rodney does more for the team right now in my opinion. It may be Willie is still a ways off from being at his best from the knee injury. Rodney just seems to fit in this current starting five as well.

I think Willie should get the playing time.... he always looked good filling in for AI. Rodney's game does look pretty clean, but i still don't think he has a real flow for the NBA game yet. Rodney seems a little better in the clutch, but i don't know if he's ready to handle starters minutes just yet. Willie has looked real good to me and I think he's gotta be over the knee injury by now.

I just don't get the Willie Green thing. He played 21 minutes last night and
had 4 pts - NO rebounds - NO assists and 3 turnovers. Why even put him
in there? Explain to me why you think he's good and maybe I'll understand.
Maybe.

Willie has looked awful recently and I have kind of not been playin close attention. I guess i kind of take back what I said before.

I really don't see anything on Willie. The best thing about him is that when he is on fire. Everygame the sixers pray and hope he has a good night. He's inconsistent.

Here is an interesting stat: Willie Green has the third worse plus/minus in the Eastern Conference. He is -205.

sean · 02-10-2007, 11:05 PM

Wow.....

IBall280 · 03-16-2007, 05:06 PM

well i believe they should alternate rodney and willie so they both play, b/c i mean both of them are not totally horrible.

sean · 03-18-2007, 03:06 PM

Agreed.

sean · 03-20-2007, 05:57 PM

Hey we saw Rodney in the Rockets game!

sean · 03-20-2007, 11:18 PM

And he had a spectacular dunk (attempt) tonight against Detroit.

IBall280 · 03-21-2007, 07:45 AM

yeah ik rodney is a beast.
