    I went to the OKC game and he was hurt while playing that game. He kept grabbing it and bending it trying to get it loose.

    Rockets medical staff strikes again.

    Why are we playing him if he's hurt !?!?

    This is an issue that is at the root of our failures . It's a never ending cycle

    Guy gets hurt ... he either plays through it worsening it , or sits .

    If he sits then MDA doesn't expand the rotation and places more load on rotation players .

    Those guys then get worn down and eventually hurt or their production suffers

    For what it's worth, he wasn't limping or anything. I just remembered for a good amount of time he was trying to get it loose and kept bending it. It could've happen during the game too. At that part of the season I could imagine almost all of the players having something nagging and aching.

    A wing that can hit 3’s and has the athleticism, length and intelligence to cover 4-5 spots on the floor? Yes those are very rare.

    Time to arrange a buyout for General Soreness. Or waive him. Or extend him. Just get that dude off the team.

    Even when we had Ennis, we didn't have a serviceable backup wing.

    Playing Clark or hartenstein is like passing a kidney stone for MDA .
