Update: BBD Hurts Patella tendon, Sign Leon Powe Right Now!

[Rondo9dunx]

If its just a strain we should be fine, our schedule is really soft over the next 2-3 weeks, while the Heat/Bulls have tough stretches, if we can create some separation for the 1 seed, everyone will be able to get their proper rest without suffering bad losses...

This is where semih would have come in handy =/

Well...at least we will know quickly whether or not Murphy will contribute or not...

I have good feeng about Murphy/Green/Krstic

They get to be more involved with the game and learn more, we dont have excuses to not play them anymore, they get to show us what they have and I have a feeling they will do well.

Krstic especailly has elevated his game, its clear he wants to be on this team and hes showing alot of effort out there.

Green/Murphy look lost but thats expected. Krstic looks like he fits right in, as soon as he gets the ball he attacks.

[Rondo9dunx]

Yea my only concern with bbd goin down is that KG and maybe Murphy are going to have to back up Krstic at C...


kinda sucks but we'll get by... we're deep and strong enough to overcome adversity....maybe this mean shaq comes back early? He should be around long enough for bbd to get back before he needs another month off

isn't shaq supposed to be back soon? at some point during this homestand, right? that'll help the front court rotation significantly. shaq/kristic and kg/murphy isn't terrible. green can pinch in at the 4 at times, too.

[GreenEnvy]

BBD knows the defense better than any big not names KG, but if Shaq comes back, he won't be missed that much for the rest of the regular season.

With Garnett getting like 32 minutes a game, we need 64 minutes from bigs:

Shaq 20/Krstic 20/Murphy 20/Green 4



I can't imagine how scary this team will be with all it's players healthy, wow. We could have starter-level talent INACTIVE on certain nights.

[Who]

Looks like a lot of Jeff Green playing out of position again at the 4.

It'll be a lot easier for Green to matchup against backup PFs than starters ... so there is some hope for him to play at a higher level at the four here, in that role, than he did in OKC.

[Who]

Great opportunity for Troy Murphy ... if BBD is out for an extended period of time.

[Bankshot]

We don't need Leon.  Krstic, Green and Murphy will fill in fine temporarily.  Plus Shaq should be back soon too.  We need to fill the last spot with a backup point guard.

[nba is the worst]

Great opportunity for Troy Murphy ... if BBD is out for an extended period of time.

But if he plays anywhere near as bad as last night, the C's are in trouble

Did you expect him to play well when he's been away from the game so long?

Plus hopefully its a short term solution.

Murphy is going to get some serious run too.

[BudweiserCeltic]

I really don't understand people. They know X player is not ready to play, that they're not in game shape. The game comes, they look bad, and start drawing conclusions from that game. Does it make you scratch your head too?

[mgent]

If Baby is out for any amount of time we all know where the last roster spot needs to go and it's not Powe.

Rondo/West/Bradley
Ray/Pavlovic/Wafer
Paul/Green
KG/Murphy (Baby)
Sheed/Krstic (Shaq/JO)

I was hoping that you were going to say Antoine.
