I’m apologizing in advance for asking but.....

Are these 2 players injured? I see where we are only playing Hyatt and Taylor off the bench the last several games.

Manning is, Bishop just isn't very good right now.

Would love to get Manning back in 2 weeks. Would be huge.

Manning is out

Bishop looks like a Year 3 impact guy at best

Wade indicated Bishop got hurt at practice a week or so ago
The way he said it though made it seem like that wasn't really why he wasn't seeing court
Until you can do what Wade wants, you don't play!

Wade was really talking up Bishop in the off-season, which is uncharacteristic.

Surprised he’s not better. He hasn’t shot well, but he looks athletic and moves well on the court.

Wonder if there are other issues, like attitude?

Bishop is "nicked" up right now. A couple of minor injuries have prevented him from seeing even limited minutes on the floor.

Has this been reported on? I haven’t seen this anywhere.

Based on how Wade raved about his work ethic, I highly doubt it. My guess would be that he’s injured.

Wade has said Bishop is dealing with injuries and very recently said that. It's not the extent Manning is but Bishop is definitely not 100% right now.

Wade over hypes everyone in the preseason. He did it last year too. His way of selling tickets imo

As of today, coaching staff are hoping Manning will be able to play the Mizzou game, and if not, should be back in time for Alabama.

Bishop will be playing a few minutes here and there. He’s a good ball handler, but IMO still plays like he’s in high school. He’s getting a good education sitting on the bench and participating in practices. He’ll get more playing time when he’s ready.

From memory as I am not looking it up but wasn't Bishop the rave of the Spain tour?

I'd still like to see Graves in for brief stints to nail a 3 every once in a while. Having him shoot would at least get our 3pt% up into to the 20s.

No he doesn't, he has talked up some guys big but not "Everyone" by any shape of the imagination.
