Heldt should get more minutes
« on: January 07, 2017, 08:38:42 PM »
Why didn't wojo put Matt in sooner for Fisher?  Matt may not be the best player on our roster, but his determination, and will shows a lot more than Luke's.

Here's to hoping to see more of Matt during conference play this year.

Luke deserves to play as much as he has?  That made me laugh as well.

Heldt is too much of a liability, both because of foul trouble and shaky D, to get more minutes. Fischer is really struggling this year, and at times seems to have little to no drive in him, but he's still a stronger player in nearly all facets than Heldt.

Look at it this way, you've got a dork who works his a$$ off, hustles, tries hard, and is almost always in position vs. a "stud" who is dumb as a box of rocks, lazy, and cannot execute against good competition.  Sorry, but I'm going with the dork from now on.  Make fisher a 2nd unit player and Heldt the starter.  If Fisher comes in and misses a defensive rotation, back to the bench.

Reading too much into garbage time is a fools errand.  The door is so far open for Froling or a graduate big its not even funny.

Send a message to Fischer.  Start Heldt!

Absolutely.  Wojo needs to show possible bigs that the position is open big time.

Heldt is not a BE starting center at this point and may never be.  I just can't see him competing against Delgado, Patton, Gaston and the likes in upcoming games.  He would literally have two fouls in first four minutes and opposing coaches would know to attack him immediately.

Heldt stays under the basket something Fish does not. Fischer  tries to help when in fact he misses defending the open man inside. Fish tries hard but is not strong enough to make an easy layup. Not sure he can  toughen up. Time is running out for him while Held is developing slowly. Hauser has a great future but could use 20 lbs of muscle and really needs to be at the 3.
