    Agree. They look so pathetic right now. Just let him heal COMPLETELY. No need to be a part of this mess right now.

    I’m glad to hear that Christian isn’t wearing a boot, but they should take all the time they need bringing him back. If he’s out weeks, so be it. The kid has far too much talent to risk creating a chronic injury, in my opinion.

    There is zero reason to rush Wood back. This is a fringe playoff team *with* Wood.

    I agree you rest him till he’s 100. I thought this team was better than fringe. I thought they were second tier 4-5th seed potential. Without Wood that’s not possible, but still not worth risking him long term given team situation.

    I hope we turn it around, but these last 5 games have been embarrassing.

    So... you are comparing a perfectly healthy athlete to one that is not healthy? If things are bad enough that a perfectly healthy athlete can be injured in any given game, doesn't the chance increase exponentially for an injured athlete?

    Hell, how did it work out for Wood when he was coming back from the 1st injury to that ankle?

    Good. While we tank, he should lift/bulk.

    Ya the dude needs to eat a crap ton of calories in protein and fat and lift a lot of weights. He ain't going to last long playing at a high level with a lot of minutes in that frame. Obviously still stay lean which I'm sure he doesn't have a hard time doing.
