I'll try to find the link, but they said the average games missed for players with the same injury as Gasol is 23 games.

Made a quick sweep through my NBA Injury Database and found 8 grade 2 MCL diagnoses. The average number of missed games was 23.
 
Here is a description of the 15 million per season Brook:

Big body... Very nice skills around the basket... A go-to guy in the post... Effective offensive player... A little bit mechanical... Doesn't pass the ball very well... Must improve rebounding and overall toughness.

Here is the description of the 5 million per season Robin:
Has the size and mobility that you're looking for in an NBA center... Runs the floor pretty well... Plays physical... Raw and mechanical offensively.

For the Blazer's needs I prefer someone like Robin. And for 15 million a year I prefer someone like Hibbert.

I get what you're saying, and it makes sense that with LMA in the fold you would prefer the defensive center. But Brook is paid appropriately given his skillset. Guys like Robin are not that hard to find. Guys with Brook's size, scoring ability, and efficiency are extremely tough to find. Even if he does have some big holes in his game hes going to get paid because that skillset is a very finite commodity and then you can add a Robin or similar defensive role player without too much difficulty.

Anything new on rose? I hope it's negative...
 
Kings are good this year. They've just had a tough schedule, having to play us twice.
 
K.C. Johnson @KCJHoop
Per sources, Derrick Rose tore his right meniscus and will need surgery.
 
Adam McGinnis @adammcginnis
RT @KCJHoop DRose will undergo surgery in the near future. Until that is completed, it's known if he will miss season or not.
 
Erik Gundersen @blazerbanter
Better than an ACL. Still not good. RT @KCJHoop: Per sources, Derrick Rose tore his right meniscus and will need surgery.
 
Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA
Rose told people on Friday night that injury didn't feel like ACL tear of two years ago, source tells Yahoo. But he knew he had damaged knee

Well what will Chicago do? I mean this is such a damn good draft. A top pick would instantly turn things around quick. Maybe even a Spurs turn around after Robinson went down.

It's a good excuse to tank, if you ask me

I wonder if Olshey is already on the phone about Noah. :ghoti:
 
Damn. Kings channeling their inner Blazers and eliminating a 20 point lead.
