he banged his left knee on Stephen Curry

i believe this is not his right knee which he had surgery on...

they say it's no big deal but he semi-limped off the court after the game...

Thought it was a full limp. Hopefully he is available Thursday.

According to Sherrod Blakely, the official word is 'a bruised knee'.

Kendrick Perkins said his left knee injury is not serious. Iffy for Thursday vs. DEN

If Perk does not play Thursday -- unbelievable -- our center rotation will consist of Semih and..............Apparently this injury is not serious, but I just don't think this team will ever be completely healthy.

This team hasn't been healthy in years. I can't remember the last time they were healthy. I don't know why you are so surprised. Was this not expected at the beginning of the season? I knew there were going to be several injuries I was just expecting KG, Pierce to be on it and not some of these role guys.

Perk wasn't even supposed to be back yet anyway so I think we've been alittle spoiled

No NBA team his healthy, they all get injuries.

Most NBA teams lose a rotation player for a long stretch of the season, if not worse.

Exactly.

Not to mention Shaq didn't play in back to back's last year and ended up playing only 53 games, JO, Quis, and Delonte are well known for how fragile they are and the amount of games they have missed. KG has missed portions of the last couple seasons for injury, Perk is just getting back from major surgery.

If you add all that up I'd say that most people should have been seeing this all along. Come playoff time when it matters if I can get all those guys back in relative health (minus Quis cause I don't see it) then I'm satisfied. I still think JO will be coming back at some point but even if he doesn't I don't see it as devastating

Hope he plays, Semih looked terrible last night.  Shaq is the slowest healing guy in the league.
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale

He's the oldest guy in the league. And the biggest. And yeah probably heals the slowest as well.

I wouldn't want a guy with a surgically repaired right knee favoring his left knee.
