    Anyone got a word on what exactly is going on with Larry Nance's knee? MCL sprain that happened two weeks ago with a 2 week return?

    oh, that this too too crappy season would melt,
    thaw, and resolve itself into off-season
    if only the Vulcans had fix'd
    their canon for tanking O God! God!
    How weary, stale, flat, and unprofitable
    Seem to me all the uses of this roster

    too bad Smart won't play because it would be very interesting to see if Boston would put their best defender on CJ or Simons
