    I think they must have consulted with the Warriors’ training staff.

    Well, technically all this has happened in the same calendar year... 2020 needs to get here fast.

    ok then....this puts the spotlight on the Blazer medical staff. For chrissakes, this seems just like the Durant situation.

    somebody needs to explain the decision to let Hood play when his Achilles was sore...that's not something you risk

    Honestly.... trade Whiteside and Bazemore for assets. The whole thing is a wasted season.

    We can’t get assets for them unless we take on longer term bad deals. That could actually be a half decent idea, our cap will be bloated with Dame and CJ deals for the next 5 years anyway so we will basically scrap enough money to get a MLE during that period anyway.

    You could see the team was devastated when he went down. I'm not saying they would've won with him in the game, but you could just tell it was a death blow.

    I hope it means more minutes for Little (silver lining), but I suspect it means Tolliver and Mario play more.

    This just makes it way worse UGH. Stotts will probably refuse to play Nas at the 3 for no reason

    I hope Rodney has a speedy recovery and comes back full strength....we'll definitely miss him this season

    2015...we add Afflalo, he integrates seamlessly, lineup is looking strong; 6 games in, Wes tears his Achilles.

    2019...we add Melo, he integrates seamlessly, starters return from injuries and lineup is looking strong; 6 games in, Hood tears his achilles.

    Clearly the situations were not identical, but it's hard not to see similarities.

    He's stubborn. I understand "confidence", etc, but you can only learn so much in practice situations. And it's not like this season isn't already done for, why not just throw him out there a little more and hope he can thrive.

    I could understand if he was an insecure mess like Meyers, who if you looked at him wrong he would wilt and regress 3 weeks...but Nassir seems to be able to adjust, adapt and grow. Something Meyers never did have.

    Well, that should mean the team finds Rodneys replacement (CJ in the case of Matthews injury) who is actually a better replacement/player (albeit, defense isn't CJs strong suit)
