Title: Minutes for TM tonight?
Post by: Secret of the Ouse on February 20, 2008, 01:29:13 PM
How many minutes do you think TM will get tonight?
Hopefully we will be able to run away with this one so he can get some good PT, I think he'll get 10+ minutes tonight

TC said last week that TM's minutes would be limited by the doctors.  I'd like to see 15-20.

I hope he gets 10-15 minutes and can do a little damage. I'm not expecting too much though. I'll be looking mostly for how well is he moving around and where his explosiveness and quickness is at the moment. I imagine he's prolly not quite up to par in those areas after coming off a 3 month layoff from surgery. I think once those areas get up to snuff the production will increase for him. Hopefully, by tourney he's closer to his normal self.

I think his minutes will depend on his health and his performance. Look for him to come off the bench early-to-mid first half, and go from there.

I think he can be a big contributor, but if Ooze keeps playing the way he does, we'll be set down low either way. Can you imagine a full-potential Ooze pleing spelled by a producing Mbakwe? We'll win by 30.

15 minutes tops.  Enough to show whether he can move well enough and still get into a groove if it presents itself.

I would think he will get about 8 minutes and I think he will get one offensive board and putback.

Completely depends on the game.  If we're up double digits, TM gets 10 minutes.  If we're in a tight game, TM gets 3-4.

I'd be shocked if he only gets 3-4.  He'll get some of Burke's and Trend's minutes even if the game is close.

I'd guess 6-10, depending on how close the game is.
