Where is Willie Warren? 

Post#1 » by Leor_77 » Sat Jan 15, 2011 12:14 am

Just curious where this guy is at...I'd love to see him play.

Is he putting in work in the D-League?

I saw him in a picture the other day. He's still with the team. We have never used the D-League. There have been many times in the past where we should have, but not one time.

With the injuries to Cook, Kaman and Smith, Warren is on the active roster each game. It looks like the only way he'll get to play is garbage minutes. We need to have a game where we have a sizeable lead in the last few minutes so that he and Sual can get some time.

I thought we'd see some good chemistry with him and Blake. But we haven't even seem them playing together yet (or in Warren's case, at all). I guess Del Negro thinks we're set at the point guard spot, and don't need to play him. I hope not, because I'd rather give minutes to him instead of Foye.

At the end of the Clippers bench waiving towels...

He could use some time in the D-League, but it seems the Clippers won't send him there as long as there aren't enough guys back from injury.

I hope we send him to the D-League as soon as we have our guys return from injury
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

I think now would be a good time actually. The only one, ahead of Willie, who isn't getting minutes is Rasual Butler. I don't even know if he's injured to begin with? All of the injuries are in the front court, and don't affect Willie at all.

He hasn't played since Baron was out with an injury, and that was very early on. It was mainly Butler/EJ/Bledsoe covering all the minutes at the guard position.

Now that Baron is back and Foye slowly getting minutes, Willie is pretty much as last resort. Every time I see him on the bench he doesn't look that happy.
