    Could be... But back to my original point: I don't think Dame and GPII were under the same degree of urgency to return. Dame was under negative urgency to return. So comparing the two doesn't really make much sense.

    I don’t like hearing that at all. Dame said he felt 100%. What happened with this surgery?

    Dame had more time than Payton to heal. But, yeah it sounds like there is still discomfort. He looked good on the court though. Hopefully, there isn't too much to be concerned about there.

    he tweeked an ankle (or something) early on during the game. That he played through it is probably because he didn't want to check out a few minutes into his long awaited debut & it wasn't serious.

    He's gonna get at max 20-25 mins on occasion. And spot minutes to close. He's not a primary weapon like Dame was. As long as he won't make it worse and it's just soreness, I think it's fine to roll him out at less than 100%

    I'll wait until we play a quality team to judge. Glad he's arrived finally though.

    Yeah I didn't read or click on anything this dude said. Thug it out? Is he just saying he still hurts and will have to play though it?

    That he's going to have to "thug it out from here" is his quote relayed by Tince a few posts back. Yes it reads like he still has issues with his core.

    Well, that kinda sucks, but he did appear to roll it pretty bad. Hopefully it's just this game.
