Wow. Still have that major gaping hole at both starting guard spots until DLO/Swaggy can come back.
Probably Calderon/JC, but that leaves us deathly thin at SG on the bench.

I wonder what the narative would be had we signed Thibs instead of Walton and he had our players playing 34 minutes + with the injuries pilling up. Just goes to show injuries happen pretty randomly.
I'am glad it's not serious. Get well Nick. |

My estimation was almost on point, I said he will miss 1-2 weeks and looks like I was off for a couple of weeks.
I'm Nostradamus! |

the SWAG will be missed until he recovers.
frustrating how injuries are derailing out season despite the great fight the team has been putting up. |

Swag has been a true irrational confidence, catch-shooter this year. JC brings a different type of play at SG. Less catch/shoot this year it seems.

2-4 weeks is absolutely the best case scenario, we dodged a major
bullet, we might not need to make a move for McLemore. |

After dodging a bullet, are you then trying to run into one?

What is that even supposed to mean? My post was about the Lakers being lucky that Youngs injury wasn't serious. |

I was really sad about Nick Young, it brought me back memories from Kobe going down in a way that I couldn't even stand watching this game anymore.
Hope he can get back healthy soon. We are missing Dlo with a somewhat concerning and mysterious knee problem and now our starting SG |

Should cut Huertes and sign Archie Goodwin
Silver lining i all this-- start BI and let this be an opportunity for him to be the team's go to guy. Will pay dividends later. |

I've said the same exact thing about Huertas/Goodwin.
Huertas literally does nothing for us at the moment. We have 4 guys (when DLO is back) who play or can play PG (DLO/JC/Lou/Jose).

Time to showcase Jose 'two 2nd Rd picks' Calderon...
Then we trade him when SwaggyP returns, for 2 more 2nd Rd picks |

Signing Goodwin actually makes a ton of sense, and he might be another Bazemore were he finds a role in the NBA.
I hope the FO takes a look at him. |

| Glad it's only a calf strain. Mitch needs to cut Huertas and go after a SG |

Great news.
I had this problem kind a few times, it may take 2 or 3 weeks to heal. |

Lol at thinking Mitch will make a mid season move. Funny. I can't remember the last time he did... Steve Blake trade maybe?

Eventually a trade happens, that's the beauty of it. |
