I didn't even notice Scal was gone.

 

Weird because Scal is the usual starter whenever KG is out. How could you not notice?

 

Not sure. Maybe I thought Doc grew a brain when someone else started in KG's spot.

 

I don't think Scal is that bad. Defensively, he always makes the correct rotations. Most guys can beat him one on one, which hurts, but he can play in the team defense better than Baby and Powe. He also stretches the floor offensively, which is why he fits well in the offense in KG's place.

 

Leon Powe out for 2 weeks, according to Doc.
