Lee and Willis participating at shootaround
- Thread starter JerseyCat84
- Start date
Don't jinx it. We have had more players injured during shoot around than any team I can remember
I'd be inclined not to start either one and see how the game progressed. Keep their minutes in fewer but longer sessions so they aren't cooling down frequently between court appearances. I know we need them now, but we're gonna needs them a heck of a lot worse later.
Start em. Coaches who are serious don't do such things you suggest
Good news. Thanks for sharing OP. Let's hope one or both have a big game, as well. We need them!
Personally, I think Tyler has a big game. He's never had two bad/mediocre games back to back, and he tweeted about the booster seat sign at Gameday. He laughed about it, but knowing Tyler he'll want to show out.
Go Cats!

Well, except those coaches that are dealing with possible tendonitis or fasciitis or other assorted inflammatory injuries.
Just a thought to give him some rest. Weren't you the crybaby whining about them having to to play on alternate days? Oh, but I forgot you are the premier trainer in the universe that said our trainers suck. So you know what's best.
What'cha really worried about? Got this month's allowance ridding on a bet?
If he is shooting around normally and whatnot he will obviously play. It sounds like he was . I always thought Lee had a good chance at playing as spasms aren't a big deal with 24-48 hours to get over them. It is not like he pulled something ect. To be honest without Lee us winning is not a likely thing with Poy out as well. We need at least 3 centers to throw at A&M's bigs.
Give him some rest? He's literally only played 10 games. I don't see anyone else on the team complaining about deteriorating. He just needs to suck it up and play.
If he would have been taking his responsibilities seriously and giving 100% in practice over the years like he was supposed to, then he'd be in much better shape and wouldn't have this problem after only playing 10 games.
A charley horse is a muscle spasm. If you think a muscle spasm is no big deal, you've never had one or are immune to pain like Lizbeth Salander's half brother.
It'll be great to have them both in there until they each get fouled out around the 15:00 mark of the second half. #SECSECSEC
I wasnt saying spasms arent a big deal as they are but only for 24-48 hours . It isnt a serious injury. No way could he of played with them thurs but 2 days later is another thing...
Depends. When I was younger, I'd get neck spasms that laid me out for 3 days. Upside: in those days they still prescribed Valium+Tylenol 3 for muscle spasms. The time passed easily.
I never once claimed to know everything, but here's what I do know for a fact. Willis is the only player on the team so out of basketball shape that he's complaining about "deteriorating" to the media after only playing 10 games.
Willis is also the only player on the team who has openly admitted to not taking basketball seriously, giving up on his basketball responsibilities, and coasting in practice. Coincidence?
You can call it omniscient all you want. I'll call it a logical presumption.
Hell, in the old days on Maxwell, I'd paid some frat boy to jump up and down on my neck for a Valium script...as long as somebody pointed me to High on Rose shortly thereafter!
I expect Willis to play, and hope Lee does. Last I checked it's at least still possible we'll get Alex back. It'd be nice to hit the post-season with all our cylinder's firing with good timing.
Not really trying to get in the middle of this pissing match, but 22 is sitting out because he is injured, not because he's worn out and tired. Big difference. Trying to compare the two makes no sense at all, but pretty sure you already knew that.
What is with you today?! Now you are suggesting Alex is...well...I'm not sure what you are suggesting.
If what you want to do is say, "Derek is playing great and I appreciate his fight for playing through pain," then say that!! Why do you have to do it while questioning the dedication and integrity of other players? Other players can be legitimately hurt and unable to play. Derek can be legitimately hurt and able to play. Both can be true.
@hoodro , earlier today he insinuated that Marcus Lee was either lazy or faking it or wimpy because he didn't play the second half against UT. Said back spasms were no big deal and said he lost respect for Lee at the UT game. He has since deleted the post, but I guess now he's moved on to Alex. Apparently a meniscus tear requiring surgery is also no big deal.
I was under the impression we were 100% getting Poy back against Vandy at the latest. That may be more BS coach speak from the coaches though.
