ust did a quick search, and it sounds like if it is a clean break of tibia and fibula it might be like a 4 month recovery process.

His leg was 90 out from where it should have been had to been some ligaments hurt as well.   I am thinking he is done for the year part of next year.  I wish him well but I do not see that healing in four months.  It may take his mind a long time to get over it.

Playing Brazil now.


So the Plumlees are on the team solely because of the Duke Coach K connection, right? I mean I have no problem with that at all, but lets recognize reality.

Irving's defense is SERIOUSLY surprising me.
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

His leg was 170 degrees from where it should have been.

Yea the depth of big men on the team is not as deep as usual.

We should keep an eye out for Karl Towns who is playing for the Dominican team again this summer(I think). I hope we draft him.

LOL I thought that Brazil player was JJ Reddick (#9).

Nice Rose.

Are Cousins and Drummond the only players to have not played? Even Lillard played, like, a minute.

Man, Davis is a beast I wish our farm was big enough to give it up for. I really like him. I don't like giving up everything for one player but he is the type you do it for.

Davis is a franchise cornerstone.  Cousins was hurt.

Irving's defense is SERIOUSLY surprising me.

He was a really good defender in high school and college. In the pros, he has been taking on too much of the offensive burden, and sometimes conserves energy on D.

We're going to see a totally different Kyrie this year.
