    Well, I guess it responded well to treatment before the Wizards game and Walker may be back for Saturday against the Nets. Personally, I wait and see how the team plays against the Bucks tonight to make a decision. If they win, then no need to rush Walker back and make sure he's healthy for the playoffs. If they lose, however, I would be more inclined to rush him back, because the confidence of this team is wavering.

    Walker's in jury is a concern for the C's.. It is intresting to see how important he is to this team.. But I agree with CetlsMan that seeing how they won against the Bucks there is no need to rush Walker back, don't take the risk of him further hurting himself only to sit out during the playoffs!!! New Jersey has always played good games against the Celts this year, but I tink Perk is doing a fine job of taking Walkers place, powering his way to get rebounds! I LOVE THAT KID!
