Well...all I can say is that if this raft of injuries allows Bayless to establish himself as an excellent young player, it'll have at least one positive effect.

Yes, but he probably didn't want to do it as our starting center.

IF the team is healthy next year, adding an impact player in Bayless to the roster would be a big deal.

It would be nice but this just isn't going to happen with the current coaching staff. You can look forward to seeing Bayless maybe 15 to 18 minutes a night but more then that is a pipe dream.

And it really doesn't matter one bit how he plays.
 
Man it's getting hard to stay optimistic.

I don't know how we are going to ever have offensive balance if we A) have no healthy 3 point shooters and B) have no post presence C) Don't get fast break points

Where are we going to score points from? Brandon and Lamarcus can only do so much.

I don't think it quite equals the JailBlazer days.. we were bad because we were just plain bad. If we were healthy now, I don't think we'd be having these problems.

It feels the same in the sense that it's hopeless.
 
Half of the team is hurt. Because they are hurt we probably can't make a deal that would matter. Sometimes you just have to realize when you are schnitzeled and wait for better times.
 
On 95.5 KV interviewed a doctor that has performed this surgery and it doesn't sound good. Best case sounded like 6 to 8 weeks, but there are chances for complications that could push recovery well past that. Then a dude called in and said he has had the exact same surgery and based on his experience with rehab, he's convinced this is season ending.

I would guess Rudy's out for the year. Considering our year will end in April now.

That is what will happen. KP has proven in the past he won't make a deal with the short term in mind. As much as it hurts, I have to agree with him this time. Maybe the Blake expiring becomes attractive to somebody - but you're not going to get a marquee guy for that.

We still should have made a deal last year though with RLEC.

Injuries are part of the game but it seems like we are the only team getting them on a regular basis and mismanaging them. Bobby Medina and Jay Jensen need to do a better job or they need to get fired.

check out the Warriors, they've had lots of trouble fielding a full lineup for much of the season. I'm guessing that this isn't a reflection on the team's medical staff but just bad luck... it happens.

Medical staff doesn't control when a player goes for a ride on a Moped...:drumroll:

There's no sense panicking and ruining what can still be a fantastic future by trying to salvage what is turning into a nightmare scenario for this season.
 
ugh..

Why do folks always try to label folks as panicking. There is panicking. Then there is acknowledging reality. In the words of Bill Paxton: "In case you haven't been paying attention to current events, we have been getting our asses kicked.".

That's a pretty good young core right there.

And if we could add a good young power forward and a star perimeter player to it...well, I like that future.

Please refer to my "Who Wins?" thread. That was exactly the point to which I was alluding.

Yup, I agreed with your implicit point, that the team has a lot of talent on the DL. It was just interesting to me that the four main players out could constitute a pretty nice "young core" by itself.

I've gotten over my bit of depression about the Oden injury and am now looking forward to the rest of the season to see which little-used players might step up and augment next year's team, which should be tremendous.
 
I just did something I haven't done in a long, long time.

Checked nbadraft.net in December :(
 
It is described as an outpatient surgery meaning the patient often can leave the hospital on the same day as the surgery or, at worst, spend one night in the hospital.

This is what happens with nearly 100% of the patients who die under the knife, so not good news. :sigh:

you're probably just going for the joke, but that accident was over a year ago and Monta is currently killing it for them putting up monster numbers. Being one of their few healthy guys, dude has had 4 games where he played all 48 minutes and another 5 where he's played at least 44. He's on my fantasy team so I'm not complaining :pimp:

I don't understand why we still have Mills on the roster. We need a healthy body much more than we need an undersized injured PG drafted at the end of the second round.
