    Just wondering??? Why would they need a CODE for kidney stones? I would think the code for kidney stones would KIDNEY STONES.

    I feel I overdone my yesterday post:) I'm just a bit angry about Stott's rotation. Lillard is playing all the time while other teams resting their stars. I know it was "nessesary" for bubble to go into playoffs. I know. However Stotts plays Lill and CJ as many minutes as they can, till they get injured. My concern is that with that rosterenagment we can never go to the finals cos players are to tired to play.
    All in all, I change my "stupid post" and what I want now is rape them till halftime so S5 can sit most of other half. I don't need Damian to score 100. I want him to Res and be ready for the Queen.

    I'm gonna jinx us.

    In every game that Dame has played in to eliminate an opponent in his career, he has won.

    Game 5 vs OKC last year.
    Game 7 vs DEN last year.
    Game 6 vs LAC four years ago.
    Game 6 vs HOU six years ago.

    what's your guess then? there can be bottles of water everywhere and he might not drink them....dehydration means you lack water...don't think my guess is a stretch and you can get heat stroke on the water without hydrating...which is my point

    do you think the staff would allow him to not be drinking water after first being diagnosed with dehydration?

    ufc fighters rehydrated in 24 hours after weigh in and they actively dehydrate on purpose to lose weight.
    There is no way it takes five days to rehydrate in a bubble unless he is being seriously irresponsible and the staff is allowing it, and i don't see that happening with how tight this team seems to be.

    Look bro. I'm Army Ranger, Structural Ironworker, and Triathlete. It doesn't take 5 days to recover from getting dehydrated from a fishing trip.
    Now the question "What's your guess then?". No idea but i'm calling bullshit on 5 days to recover from dehydration.

    I'm not saying the "fishing trip" caused it as much as not hydrating in the sun on the water would cause it....you're an athlete, you probably have the discipline to stay hydrated and eat right...Nas is young, he might not have those habits....he could have other medical issues contributing but sure...it could be bullshit...I'm not going to assume it is...I'm guessing it's something to do with his activities around the bubble...what there would dehydrate a guy in August in Florida? My 2 cents...

    I wonder if Nurk will be a (understandably) last minute scrub from the lineup with his Grandmother passing? OR ( my Theory) is Nurk goes completely off this game? 25/15 type numbers or something? 30/20?

    I just hope if he plays, he is able to maintain focus. He seems fairly tight with his Grandma.

    I think we’ll see Nurk play and get 18 + 14 + 10

    points/rebounds/assists for a triple double

    That would be awesome and a great storyline in the end, however said it may be.
