    much better than grade 3 but they still should keep him on the bench for extra two weeks at least. No point in rushing him back only to re-aggravate the injury,

    Harden was only out two weeks when he had his Grade 2 hamstring. So it could be just 3 weeks for CP who I'm assuming takes rehab very seriously.

    Toughest schedule next 9 games, predictions
    With Paul 4-5
    Without Paul 2-7

    2 wins less, not bad.

    Honestly, I just wish we don't rush him back until after All Star. If we are still in the race of playoff run, would be an great addition for the run. Otherwise, we should just give up this season to get a high draft pick and focus the next season.

    I’m looking forward to getting Chris back in two weeks and playing him 34 mins a piece again.

    Paul's play needs to be limited -- No B2Bs and 30 min/gm max.

    Sucks but we have no choice except babying him.

    TEN million/yr LESS on his contract would've helped.
