Time for Bud. Unrelated I wonder if anyone on our team will attend the all-star events....as a spectator of course.
We'll likely see big minutes for Taylor too. The team could really use his skill set (a wing that can score and take the ball to the hole), and I hope he proves himself worthy of additional playing time. Battier really needs to be moved at the trade deadline.
Chase Budinger is going to struggle without Kyle Lowry on the floor to push the pace and feed him those 3-point looks.
What's the status of Lowry's injury? He sprained his left ankle on a layup, so sad that if he's gonna sit out another stretches of games. We need him so bad.
Reported he will be evaluated after a week, and likely will be out until minimum after the all star break.(Basically the same thing)
for this kind of injury trevor could be out anywhere between 1-3 weeks....my guess is he'll be out about 5-6 games.
Again, he's just come back and then re-injured himself. Wish him the best, this team is definitely better with him on the roster and play quality minutes off the bench. On topic, whether or not Ariza sits for his own good because of his left hip pointer injury has not bothered me, don't think it's a big problem for the coach to change the lineup. Anyways, hopefully he's getting well soon.
Ariza's been slashing more lately rather than shooting. I've loved how he's been playing of late. I wish him a quick road to recovery!
Let Ariza have games off. All Star break is practically here. Let him rest and watch tape and hopefully come back a better player.
This absolutely sucks and Adelman was just commenting on them needing to bring Taylor back, because they didn't have enough wings to practice with. Now it is down to three (really two because Shane isn't exactly the most mobile wing and probably can't go all out in practice). I hope both Lowry and Ariza will be able to heal up enough after the All Star break, to play. Although, it will take something crazy for us to be up and ready to handle D-Wade and the Heat.
Thanks for the update hsf09. You've been providing a lot of quick updates from various sources on a variety of stories, and you deserve some rep for that. And maybe Ariza could use an extended break.
