CM is running out of guys we can rely on. DeJuan Goodwin has hit a wall that I'm not sure he can come back from.

5.6 ppg 28% FG, 44% FT, 23% 3's over the last 8 games.

Javon Parris has done nothing for an extended time now as well.

4.7 ppg, 2.7 rpg, 33% FG over his last 9 games.

RJ Hall has hit the wall the last 2 games as well. Very similar to what Gavin did about this time last year. Hard to believe Hall had TWO points on this 2 game homestand.

Of course Vouyoukas gives us nothing, Williams and Bauer are inconsistent from game to game, Taylor plays his ass off but has limitations. So where does Chuck go??? Schneider, Devezin and Gregory...that's all he has going for him right now. It's tough to win with 3 players plus an occasional cameo from a 4th (Bauer, Williams)...Hall needs to get over this hiccup from the last couple of games. I can see him breaking out of it. Parris and Goodwin I really have zero confidence in right now. Of course they have to play to keep guys as fresh as possible but I want to see Bauer, Schneider, Devezin, Gregory and Hall/Taylor on the floor for the crucial minutes from here on out.

FYI on Gregory over the first 14 games he went for:

2.9 ppg, 2.4 rpg, 0.1 apg, 31%FG (15-48), 50%FT (8-16), 14% 3's (2-14).

Over the last 8 games he's putting up:

11.0 ppg, 4.0 rpg, 1.3 apg, 60%FG (31-52), 81%FT(13-16), 62% 3's (13-21).

What a turnaround! Right Yankee?? : )

Gregory has been great. I'd like to see him get 30-35 minutes a game if he avoids foul trouble. I'd give Dejuan a rest. I think he's a little worn down. If Bauer can play with the aggressiveness he displayed yesterday, he'd be very effective. Parris plays good D. Not adding much O...
If only Williams had hands. Hall will rebound. He hasn't taken many shots. He could pop for 15-20 in the next game. He still has the energy..

Author: Yankee [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 15:20:09 01/26/09 Mon He also has a great step to get by guys and has been controlling his body better, not traveling or charging. He will be dependable most games the rest of the season. He also plays with tons of energy on the defensive side of the ball.

Kudos, Yankee. You called it on this guy when it looked to all like you were the king of wishful thinking:) I do have to say that I'm amazed at Kaylen's development this year. Kudos to the coaching staff; he's a different player entirely. If the coach who preceded Chuck had developed Kaylen, then maybe we beat Rider in last year's MAAC tournament ( and maybe Siena the year before?)
