    Shit, he'd take that cracked bone, hit Green over the head with it, and then hit him in the nuts on the way down.

    Then re-inserts the bone in place, sews himself up, and gets 30/20/9 assists, but then the home book gives him the 10th and 11th assist for the bone thrashing on Green.

    This is ridiculous. As if his leg is going to feel different than when the doctors checked him out yesterday?

    I suspect at this point it's a matter of how much pain he has. Presumably, he's been practicing on it and now they need him to loosen up before the game and see how it feels.

    Man if this is a ploy simply for the fans going to the game...Not quite sure how I would feel about that.

    What? Like there's a whole bunch of fans all being like "I dunno, I know it's a Playoff game and all. And these tickets were hella expensive. I think I'm gonna stay home though. Oh wait, what!?! Nurk is playing! Okay - I'm in!"

    Seriously, if it's still an issue then I went him sitting. He's too important to our future than to risk against a spastic moron like Green.

    So, if he snaps hid leg and has a 6 month setback, we are exactly where we are right now. not seeing him play until opening night next year.
    Or, he can play in a home playoff game as our only chance of winning.

    :Dunno: he has already played 1+ games on it when it didn't matter. Why not now?

    Was thinking more of a "Well those coming are coming regardless at this point, if they show up thinking Nurk might play they would be optimistic. Where as if they show up and know Nurk isn't playing the energy might not be in the building from the tip."

    this could be the most epic #podiumgame ever if Dame, CJ and Nurk are involved after we blow the doors off the Ws.
