    I want to cry but... I can't.

    Prayers and love from me to Wes, that's all I can say.

    What is recovery time from this kind of injury?

    This sucks. I wanted to see the Rain Broz beat the Splash Brothers in the playoffs. Afflalo is a very very good player though. We can survive this. Caron Butler was Dallas' second best player in 2010-11 and he got hurt but Dallas still won the title. We can still do this.

    Me too. Especially when we win the championship this season. But hey Wes, you were part of it! Warmest wishes and speedy recovery. We need you next season!

    So devastating. He was our third best player. If everyone else plays great can we still contend? I don't know.... but I'm sure we now have zero margin for additional injuries. We will need our bench to provide some minutes in the playoffs. Can CJ or Gee provide anything in the playoffs? I have doubts. I guess its damn lucky the one position we had a starting quality player was shooting guard. This just sucks so much.

    Well boys, time to pull up our boot straps and play out this season for Wes. He's the heart and soul of this team, and the other 12 guys will do whatever it takes to make it memorable.

    I'm numb to this kind of shit by now.

    Shitty situation for Matthews, but its sports for you. Next man up.

    Devastating news for sure.

    But if there's anyone that can come back stronger than ever, it's Wes. His time in Portland is not done.

    I know. Offer him the starting two position for the rest of the season. If you don't want to mess with the rotation as it is. You could get by with it.
