Scal Won't Play Against Kings

[twinbree]

Hope Scal gets well soon. Boy times have changed when a Scal injury gets me worried about the Celtics play suffering  .  Can't believe Dirk has the nerve to complain about the Celtics getting calls after he got free throws for giving his defender a concussion.

Agreed. Especially when it was so obviously one sided with them getting every touch foul,and with us getting twice the fouls called on us than them with half the free throws they shot. I think Dirk is starting to realize that he isn't the Cornerstone type player that people thought he was rather a nice complimentary player and he is starting to compensate by being a whiny little girl about everything.

Wait, dirk complained about the officating in that game? 
Wow

Yeah he did. In his alternate universe...

I thought we got fouled a little bit, but usually in this
league the team that’s more aggressive that’s making stuff
happen is getting calls," Nowitzki said.

Which clearly doesn't make any sense since they got
3 times as many free throws attempts as the Celtics

That sucks as Scals done a nice job for us. Hope he's back soon. I would have liked to have him for the Pistons and Lakers games. Hope we see more Powe and Walker.

I'd rather see POB get the extra minutes than Powe. Leon has had multiple chances with meaniningful minutes and done little with them. Let's give POB some real PT, not limit him to garbage time.

100% agree, i've had enough with leon. he's got hustle on rebounds but he completely fails offensively, he jumps up with the ball looking for contact, then failing to make free throws, or he gets the ball and stumbles to the hoop for a bad shot.

At the pace POB fouls, I suggest we do this against a very bad FT shooting team, because we'll be in the penalty really early.

Bad news about Scal.

You are wrong for that...but TP anyway because I did laugh.

Weei just reported that Scal suffered his 2nd conclusion in two days...the last one was in practice in Waltham.Dale on weei thinks the 1st one was in the Mavericks game on Sunday but not clear on it.

Yeah, he got hit in the face pretty good by Dirk on Sunday (somehow it was a foul on Scal).  Especially when they showed it in slow-motion.  That looked painful.

Leon will probably get his PT.

At first i thought he had lost a few teeth.

Me too, but then I realized that it was just some pork fat that he likes to store between his cheek and gums during games.
