<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">LOS ANGELES -- The news got a little bit worse for the Pistons on Thursday. Richard Hamilton hyperextended his right elbow during practice and is questionable for tonight's game against the Lakers. "I don't know," Hamilton said when asked if he thought he would be able to play. "It don't feel good right now." Hamilton injured his elbow during a scrimmage. The Pistons training staff is listing him as questionable and day to day. "He kept playing (after he injured the elbow)," coach Flip Saunders said. "We'll have to see how he feels (today)." Hamilton has missed 10 games because of injury since joining the Pistons in 2002. If he can't go, Flip Murray likely would start.</div> Source
Lucky we have Flip to fill in in his absence, this is why if Rip gets injured now, I doesnt phase me TOO much, because we now have a great SG off the bench who can fill his shoes for how ever long may be needed.
