Pierce is much better, particularly as a defender/rebounder and ability to attack the rim. They are roughly equivalent as shooters, except Pierce rarely forces bad shots and Crews consistently does.

If we only play well for 30 mins like vs Ten,A&M you right(nm) - oldtgr MU - 2/12 12:22:35

I’m thinking Gates might try a different starting lineup - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/12 09:14:43

I hope he leaves Pierce in it. All he needs to do is - thytiger MU - 2/12 13:23:28

He is mercurial in his lineups and NIL cash has made - alstl MU - 2/12 10:43:20

If it was about NIL - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/12 10:53:35

The reference to NIL is because he has 18 players on - alstl MU - 2/12 15:03:27

The substitutions aren’t even mercurial - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/12 15:27:25

The incredibly slow starts offensively have been a problem - FIJItiger MU

- 2/12 10:22:12

Starting Warrick in place of Robinson would be interesting - Eggs MU - 2/12 10:17:47

starters should be - o'lineydisciple MU - 2/12 09:42:55

I like Grill coming of the bench. I would not mess - thytiger MU - 2/12 13:27:01

Pierce and Crews are not roughly equivalent - FIJItiger MU

- 2/12 10:05:15

That being said, Pierce is 10-31 from the field - Eggs MU - 2/12 10:13:49

Agree, Pierce’s diminished minutes have been a problem - FIJItiger MU

- 2/12 10:20:15

them making themselves unplayable is why they are on the - TigerA MU - 2/12 10:21:41

Perkins is the biggest disapointment of the season. - alwaysright MU - 2/12 16:54:01

That is rarely the case the last 2 years(nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 2/12 10:26:16

it's certainly the case now(nm) - TigerA MU - 2/12 10:27:05

Disagree, not certainly(nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 2/12 11:06:51

prob is Grill says he doesn't like to start and plays better - TigerA MU - 2/12 09:53:24

I call BS on that (nm) - Uncle John KC - 2/12 12:49:45

I’m not sure I believe him there - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/12 09:56:18

i'm sure you think you know more about it than him(nm) - TigerA MU - 2/12 10:08:15

I am sure he is repeating what the coaches and team - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/12 10:14:23

I don’t think the starters matter as much - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/12 09:48:08

Against the two best defenses in the SEC (nm) - haeffb MU - 2/12 09:40:32

Robinson’s slump is at 6 games - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/12 09:58:58

He needs to swap out Pierce for Crews...nm - CoolBreeze22 MU - 2/12 09:30:38

i bet he doesn't. but i bet he subs a dozen guys in and out - phrejd KC - 2/12 09:24:00

i'd bench robinson(nm) - TigerA MU - 2/12 09:19:01
