    He is missing a lot of time for a kick in the calf, is there any news on his return, the team really misses his all around game.

    I think he'll be back before the regular season is out.

    Great, thanks Clutch, him getting some mins to get with the flow again is crucial, imo.

    Yeah, he needs some in game action before the playoffs. Delfino looked pretty rusty and tentative last night.

    Kobe also thought he might have gotten kicked in the calf.

    Kobe clearly had to come out, Parsons played on that game it is pretty clear that the two episodes are not remotely related.

    I think if Parsons tore his Achilles, they would have figured that out by now.

    It has only been a few games, but Parson has been really missed by this team. He is like the grease that makes the engines run smoothly.

    Parsons is a much improved version of the original glue, Battier.

    I missed last nite's game; what is up with Delfino? Is his elbow still problematic? I have assumed that was why he has been out???

    Not on twitter?

    It's healing. Just needs some more time.

    No, he was hoping he got kicked in the calf because he felt the pain, and feared it was the worst possibility. Remember he still made 2 free throws after the injury.

    getting kicked in the calf sucks. It seems like any other bruising, but it makes walking normally a challenge.

    Dude, if he tore his achilles they would have reported it because that is the worst injury for a basketball player and there is no "rest and hope it gets better" type of recovery from those.

    Probably true but Battier is better than the Battier we had. His D is still great and he is hitting at 44% from behind the arc. And he is such a leader. This young team needs someone like him to anchor them. Without Battier Miami doesn't win a championship last year. Oh how I would love him on our roster.
