Why can’t the organization just give a real update? There is no reason to pussy foot around. The team is bad and Scoot won’t change that. Just give us something we can ise

Only 23 more games for Love and 20 for Sidy before we have to find a roster spot for them. 15 more games before the trade deadline.

Or our other guys just come back and those guys spend the rest of the season in Gleague and we figure it out this off-season.

If they trade they trade. If not they don't. That's the way it looks. The timing seems too perfect.

The team is bad? Hahahaah, really???? This BAD team is cooking good teams right now. I guess you're watching Baywatch reruns and other balls bouncing.

I had this daydream that he would play Friday. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

 

[kjironman1]

So trade deadline is now inside of 30 days. For those not up to speed it's Feb 5th.
Look to see Jrue and possibly Grant back on the court in the next week or two.

Be careful what you say. I got blasted around here for saying basically the same thing about injury updates…

I think it has a bunch to do with the possibility of trades and organizational development.
The injury report needs to stay fluid and it’s as much a tool as anything else they use.

Sounds like Jrue will be back on Tuesday.

Who said that?

[Cugel]

Would be great to see Jrue get some reps

Kris Murray out indefinitely though with a lumbar strain

 

[Blazinaway]

any further news on seriousness of RWIII knee injury?

Just soreness. Not a good sign it keeps flairing up though.

 

[riverman]

Murray has a lumbar strain in his lower back and is listed as out indefinitely. This means a heavy dose of Rupert for a while. Mild strain 1-2 weeks recovery, medium 4-6 and severe 6-8 weeks

 

[SwissBlazer]

And a heavy dose of Toradol

 

[THE HCP]

Why does every team face us with our best players out?

I LOVE that only 20% at most will get this. Props to you ma’am.

Well, Rupes will get some playing time and maybe develop a bit. We will see what he's made of.

In my opinion Billups didn't just stunt Rupert's growth, he caused him to regress, especially in regard to the young man's confidence on the court. I see him hesitate now and be more tentative than when he first came here. He's still only 21 years old and has barely sniffed the court until now. When I watch Rupert, I see a rookie with some ability and potential. He may never put it together at the NBA level, but I'm happy to see Tiago making an attempt to develop him.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Add Deni to the list...

Blazers & injuries is the new whack-a-mole game. It's a game best played with single-malt scotch
