    What's the last thing we've heard on the topic? We're going nowhere without him.

    How far can this team go considering in the playoffs? His hand isn't getting any better.

    Aldridge says it's a day to day thing. It's not relates to his thumb injury, just a finger sprain. I'd bet he skips tomorrow night and plays in the next one after that.

    I don't care how long there out for as long as they are back by April... 100% HEALTHY!! You have got to be able to win on the road to win a championship and I don't want them rushing!

    Did not travel with the team. He is not going to Phoenix at this point. Same with Batum and Kaman. WES!

    I was thinking we might sign a big man to a 10day contract. If either Rolo/Freeland gets fouls trouble or something we are screwed. Meyers is a jump shooting stretch 4 who's very hot or cold but he can't play defense. The next biggest players we have are Gee and Wright.

    I guess at this point Stotts just doesn't want to deal with any new temporary faces on the team. If need be he'll just play an unconventional 5 guards or something.

    I'm guessing we'll see a lot of small ball and Meyers on the court with Freeland or Wright rebounding in the paint.

    Per Twitter, LA and Batum have been upgraded to questionable for tonight - assume that means we can reasonable hope for at least one of them.

    We should be eligible for an injury exception shouldn't we? Wes with a season ending injury opens a roster spot before the playoffs
