LMA out 1 week, Leonard out 2 to 3 weeks

Oh, JJ, where art thou?

Spending his time dragging down the Nuggets this year.

I'm excited to see what Roninson will do with some extended run.

Foul out? I keed.

Foul out? I keed.

I'm hoping to see some of this before he does

 

[Mediocre Man]

Oh, JJ, where art thou?

Inching his way down to his non Blazer career 15 PER with Denver

TRob needs to not follow through on those blocks. No reason for it, and it leads to fouls. Straight up ala Freeland wins the race.

I was listening to Hibbert on the BS Report and he was saying thats why he had so many foul problems when he was a rookie. I think T Rob will learn that as well

Has there been any news on LMA's return? He should be healthy by tomorrow, according to the original assessment.

LaMarcus Aldridge made the trip to Denver, got off the team bus entering #Blazers shootaround.

Well things are certainly looking up in Rip City! I'd certainly hope we could beat Denver even if he doesn't play - but it seems unlikely he'd make this one-day trip if he planned not to.

I'd rest him tonight. Don't need LA to beat DEN. We've got a tougher game tomorrow at home vs BKN (who has had multiple days of rest)

 

[blazedanugz]

i had a feeling since the when they announced he would be out for a week that it would really just be to rest him...his groin was bothering him before a little bit and he still played in the all-star game.

Yep, Denver looks pretty battered too.

LA came on this trip for the legal weed.

yeah, I'd like to see Trob getta chance to play another 25-30 minites and make sure LMA is FULLY healed, no reason to take any chances here

 

[Pinwheel1]

Maybe he is there in case of an emergency. (Trob or Lopez go down)

However if he was going to play tomorrow and not tonight, then I would not have sent him. The travel is just as tiring as the game itself. Stay home and get ready.

It's that nervous laugh that gave it away.

The latest injury updates: Aldridge, Batum, Freeland

Despite traveling with the team to Denver, Trail Blazers starting power forward LaMarcus Aldridge (left groin strain) will not play in Tuesday night’s game versus the Nuggets. It is not known if he underwent the evaluation he was scheduled to undergo after the team announced on Feb. 18 that he would sit out at least a week. Head coach Terry Stotts said only that there was “no update” on Aldridge’s status.
