Message: [QUOTE="REB1094, post: 4493284, member: 12147"] Hawkins was a jittery freshman and was viewed as an important piece for our future so I could understand Hurley playing him through cold spells. Joey is a 5th year senior. There will be a game where Joey will play 15-20 minutes because he goes crazy and hits 3 threes in a few minutes. Once that happens, he’ll get a longer leash for sure. He’s a solid veteran and we’ve seen several times how easily he can light up a scoreboard But he’s 1-12 since Georgetown. 0-3 in 9 minutes vs. Creighton, 0-5 in 9 minutes vs. Providence. Can’t justify the minutes when Diarra’s defense was one of the most important factors of our game winning run against Creighton I have faith in Joey. He’s a knockdown shooter that’s just adjusting to a really tough conference while hitting a cold spell. He’ll get his time, but he needs to make the shots first [/QUOTE]
