    where did you get the week from? He will be re-evaluated in a week but that could be to see if he needs surgery.

    a broken kneecap seems to be a fairly significant injury, but maybe the small fracture, is really really small

    I've seen 3-6 months as a recovery time. I guess since they are saying it's a "small" fracture it might be less.

    when Portland went into the season with Nukic/Zeller/Nance as their big man rotation they were taking a huge risk because the three players combined had missed about 260 games the previous 3 seasons.

    That sucks. We do have that 15th spot to sign another big man

    Gonna be hard to justify adding salary to this roster when they are trying to get out of the tax.

    trading two firsts and Ariza for RoCo, then trading RoCo for tax relief will just be another brick in Olshey's idiot-legacy

    games are much more watchable without cj mccollum

    im not saying were better without him, just that i can actually enjoy watching my team play

    trade him for a better fit and call it a day
