Winnable or no?

 

[BassPlaya]

Every game is winnable. If Deni is not getting flare ups and is on the way to mending, I see the offense increasing for the remainder of the season.

 

[THE HCP]

Winnable or no?

They’re ALL winnable. Just like in golf, every putt is makeable……just depends on if you EXPECT to make it or not.

 

[wizenheimer]

sniffles for the tank?

 

[wizenheimer]

Ainge sure doesn't seem to fear the wrath of Silver

Didn't he have surgery?

 

[wizenheimer]

Didn't he have surgery?

yeah...about 3 weeks ago for deviated septum. That is generally an elective surgery and probably could have been delayed till the off-season. I have had nasal surgery....a septoplasty and turbinate resection combined. Outpatient sugery. The first week of recovery is miserable but after that it's quite quick. I was back at work at the end of the following week. Of course, I wasn't risking an elbow to the nose from Gobert or Sabonis

It wasn't even broken or anything? Maybe getting elbowed by Gobert or Sabonis would have corrected it lol.
