    Posted earlier in the thread. Dante Cunningham, Tyson Chandler, and Steve Nash were also around the same 4 week time frame for non-displaced fibular fractures

    Yes let's Brandon Roy our COTF a few months into his blazers career.

    Hopefully PA says "hold on now I've seen this movie before, let's bring him along slowly rather than rush him back"

    Heres the lineup I'd go with:

    Lillard (36) / McCollum (12)
    McCollum (24) / Crabbe (24)
    Harkless (15) / Turner (25) / Crabbe (8)
    Vonleh (10) / Aminu (20) / Harkless (18)
    Leonard (14) / Vonleh (24) / Aminu (10)


    Lillard/McCollum - 36 minutes
    Vonleh - 34 minutes
    Harkless - 33 minutes
    Crabbe - 32 minutes
    Aminu - 30 minutes
    Turner - 25 minutes
    Leonard - 14 minutes

    Apparently Nurkic Fever doesn't last very long, but you feel really sick when it's gone.

    I had a non displaced fracture in my nose. Hurt for a couple days and was completely healed in a week or two.

    The next promising young Blazer center to stay healthy will be the first.

    I've been browsing the net for examples of heal time for non-displaced fibula fracture, and it takes 6+ weeks for most people. Of course, all kinds of factors come into play, but to think he'll be playing ball in 2 weeks is very optimistic. Most of the heal times you see refer to people walking without crutches.

    I just think Nurk is done for the season.

    Would like to see Nurkic get down to 250-260 lbs.

    Would still be extremely strong but he'd also be quicker and more agile.

    The biggest thing is it would make him less injury prone. 25lbs less coming down on his legs is a big difference.

    Well seems likely that we will still make the playoffs (whether thats good or bad) but even if somehow we don't either way one positive that I am interested to see is Vonleh play extended minutes. I hope we can even run some plays for him. I would like to see how he reacts

    I wouldn't start Leonard fuck that.

    Vonleh at center. Aminu at PF. Harkless, Crabbe, and Turner get a bump in minutes.

    This is Meyers last chance to salvage an NBA career.
