    A mod should merge this with the "Pendergraph hurt" thread

    We need ourselves a team witch doctor to ward off all the bad karma we apparently are surrounded by.

    If he were playing for the Blazers, both of his knees would have exploded into dust right before our eyes.

    I disagree.

    I wouldn't have looked at that thread expecting an update on his injury situation.

    --

    On topic, this sucks. True, Pendergraph isn't a tremendous value on the court, but he's occupying a roster spot and we're already down two big men. bad start. Hopefully the last serious injury we have.

    That's exactly why I was looking at it and exactly why I posted the injury update in that thread 8 minutes before this thread was made.. I think the title of the thread should be this threads. Not that it matters at all though.

    Now we have no back-up centers healthy until Joel or Greg get back, and we don't know when that will be.

    I'd take this opportunity to add Matthews to the starting lineup:

    Andre / Roy / Matthews / Batum / LMA
    Bayless / Rudy / Dante / Camby / Camby

    ^^^^ Batum as the starting PF??? He'd be pushed all over the court.

    Possibly; a second option is to start Dante at PF and LMA at C.

    Very True! Hes a big body in the middle, not a bad idea for insurance.

    Damp is going to want a full 1 year deal minimum, not going to happen.
