    I wish we could just let Beverley go out there with his cast on. He's alreadyan offensive liability, but with the cast he just gets that much better on defense. A much better weapon to bludgeon opposing PG's with.

    My thoughts exactly. 3 pg rotation would mess things up for the opposing teams. They would have to adjust to a pure point in prigs, a shooter in terry, and an animal in Beverly. It would be different the whole game and would allow us to mix and match.

    Our player roster should be locked down already. I doubt PB and Dmo are on the "Active" list for the roster.

    Beverly's return would be nice, but I really hope DMo can come back. DMo helped get us to where we are more than Beverly did. And I like Jason Terry starting next to Harden. Terry can have plays Run For him, such as bring him off some picks for a jumper. What we don't need is a poor mans Rondo mucking up the offense.

    Terry really stepped his game up in game 1. If he can play close to that level the entire series, we should be fine.

    I would like Bev back ASAP, though, he hits some timely threes and is a much better defender than Terry/Prig.

    No way he can come back from that back surgery, heard someone ask on the CP show and he explained it was NOT possible this playoffs.

    That's too bad. He is my favorite player. Hooks and 3's and better interior AND perimeter defense than people give him credit for. Able to post up Dirk and shot a 3 in his eye. Could do the same against Splitter/Dunkan/Baines or Griffin/Jordan/Hawes, or Gasol/Randolf/Green. GS ??? Anyways, No Donut's then Give me some Capela!

    Terry cannot be hidden vs Golden State, so a return in a potential WCF would work out perfectly.

    I can believe it since it's not his shooting hand. If it was his shooting hand I'd be skeptical.

    There was a day and age in the NBA where guys wouldn't even know they needed such a thing as a wrist surgery and would just play through the pain. Beverley is that type of player.

    I have faith that we'll see his return in late May/early June.

    Not likely, if we are even in the play-offs come end of May, that means we've made the WCF. This also means we are playing very well. Would you really risk throwing Beverley out there when the team is on a roll? It might seem like a no-brainer theoretically because that means we need someone to slow down Curry / Conley / Lilliard. Don't know if I would do it though.

    Yeah Beverly will be back. i think he'll be back late second round honestly. but we just have to get there first.

    Dmo is not coming back unfortunately. no chance for him. so this year we really have to put up or shut up. no excuses.
