I was thinking something like this too, that Papa was in the dog house or something. But I read it or heard it on Charlie Palilo - McHale interview yesterday but McHale was lamenting Pap still being out and how he would love to have him back right now, but that he still is recovering from the sprain. Must have been one hell of a sprain! Its at least good to hear Kostas is out for the right reasons and not some drama.
Damn dude! Ariza - sick. questionable. missed shoot around Bev - BURSITIS! questionable. at shoot around (had to look that one up. oh my gawd) Terry - still sore hammies. questionable. at shoot around. TJ - Partially Collapsed Lung! out Pap - ankle sprain. out D12- knee. out I'm guessing we're going to be able to get Terry or Bev to suit up... Terry/ Prigs Harden/ KJ Brewer/ Dorsey/ Smith DMo/
This gets said at least once per game thread. If Harden isn't hurt and is good to go, there is no reason for him to not play. He's 25. I'm sure he doesn't want to voluntarily sit out either.
^^^ Unless you mean limit his minutes more, which does make sense, but I'm not sure it's something we can afford to do at this point. Hopefully we just play well and the game can largely be over going into the 4th, though I doubt that's the case.
McHale said we are going to play iron man basketball for the first time, where the players play both ways, on offense and defense....
