I read 2 weeks. |
I'd be ecstatic but all the medical websites say a moderate strain is a bit longer. Though I'm interpreting moderate as a grade 2. I suppose if you interpret it as a grade 1 it'd be 2 ...
Hope you're right  |

He should take his time coming back... mostly because I have Delon Wright in a few of my dynasty leagues and he's killing me, lol. |

I would love to get him on our staff, he isn’t the reason the Pels are losing but someone has to be the scapegoat. Hopefully they also have a fire sale soon and we can get some of there talented players. |

He's head coached 17 years. His teams have had an above .500 record 4 times.
I never thought he was a good head coach. But if an assistant coach spot opens up for us, we could do worse.

I strongly disagree. He is a HUgE reason they’re losing. His rotations are trash and he has no concept of how to coach defense. Is he the sole reason? Absolutely not. But he is 100% a large part of it |

| The Pelicans are to young to win games, Zion was there only hope to compete in games, yes I agree with both of you that Gentry shares some of the blame but the roster construction doesn’t have a lot to be desired. |

The pelicans are one of the most trash defenses in the history of the league.
Whatever Lonzo and Ingram had here on the defensive end, is gone in NOLA. |

Been pretty quiet on the trade front this year  |
Jan. 15 is the next trigger date with nearly the entire league eligible to get traded then.
Sans no trade clauses, the only guys that aren't available are the guys that signed designated player contracts or the guys that signed extensions late into the summer before the season started (ie Dame, Jmurray, Simmons, Osman, DMurray, Hield, Sabonis, TPrince, Ingles, SpicyP, JBrown, Beal, EGordon and LeVert).

What exactly would Gentry bring to this team?  |

It was from the Mavs medical people after he was x-rayed. I have no idea what their track record is.

Their talented players are Zion, Ingram, Holiday, Hayes, Reddick
Ingram is the only one who used to be ours |

They have a plenty of good individual defenders - Holiday, Ingram, Lonzo
Favors, Williams and Hart. They have enough personnel to get it done so it’s definitely coaching . They need coaching overhaul and some trade to tinker the roster. They are waiting for Zion to find out who fitting and who’s not to make any changes. |

Dallas might pull the trigger first with Iggy to weather the storm. I’m looking for Iggy for Lee and a second and another sweetener to seal the deal. |

Luka is their engine. How does replacing luka with Iggy help? |

I never said he will replicate his production nor he can make the same impact but if Luka is out for considerable amount of time, Iggy can help while Dallas will unleash the Zinger. Lee is out of rotation anyway. |

Lol, Are you trying to play dumb or being sarcastic? From the locker room, veteran leadership, making plays ,hitting timely 3 ball and and all the way to defensive schemes, Iggy is always valuable. If you don’t see the way I do then you can disagree. If you trying to insinuate he can’t run the offense then yes he can not and that’s why Dallas need to utilize the Zinger. |
