    I'm a big LaMarcus fan, so time for a new avatar, I guess.

    I'm glad you did. In the back of my mind I've been having the same thoughts. Your question caused me to think about it and now I'm actually a bit relieved.

    I should rep you. ;)

    Latest Update

    So they speculate LMA could be out atleast 3 weeks, or may need surgery.

    Rolo won't be back until right before ASB (They're hoping, so could be even later) and sounds like Freeland is way out...not until after the ASB (I swear Freeland is the slowest healer lol)

    Listen to a quick blip from Olshey's interview in the link below.

    If they have him in a cast to immobilize his thumb and hopefully get the swelling down to avoid surgery I'm all for a 3 weeks rest! At least we have good timing with the All Star break coming up. Hopefully we get some of these games leading up to the break but unfortunately this team just doesn't win very much without LaMarcus.

    Trying to look at the positive, February is the best month for us to be out all these guys. Only 9 games to play, 6 of which are home.

    so it went from the MRI being clear, to the MRI being inconclusive, to a cast, to another MRI coming, to 3 weeks out maybe, and now finally to surgery and extended recovery time.

    fuck me.

    With the amount of Aldridge hate Sinobas had all season, he must be jumping in celebration right now.

    Tough break. Ball is in Neil's hands now. Do we watch this season go down the drain or make a deal?

    Is it too late to push for the extended all star break starting this year?

    Why can't they cast it and he just play on it? Not his shooting hand (although I am sure it would still affect him some)
