    Tweaked his ankle again....is what Feigen said.

    Lowry says no big deal he will play Friday, but we can't afford to have Brooks wear down again....he has got to rest some.

    The team need a 3rd pg. I hope Morey will address this issue this summer.

    The team cannot sign one after one just for 10 day contract.

    btw, why didn't Morey sign a 3rd pg this season? Is it because Morey wants give Lowry enough playing time? It seems Morey really likes Lowry. He even addressed the rockets will certainly resign Lowry this summer. The fact is that Lowry even couldn't handle backup minutes. He has a potential to be a injury prone.

    nah, he just sprained his ankle and the roster is a bit lopsided with wings right now.

    We could lose a wing....and gain a 3rd string PG and be golden....

    Agreed. Must rest Brooks for playoffs or else we won't be winning a championship.

    How about we just let Ariza play point forward while we are at it.

    Nah, no playoffs, but tired players risk injury...better to let them play to their strenths.

    We need to draft a combo guard. Someone who is primarily a SG but can run the point for small stints. Avery Bradley maybe?

    DJ Strawberry is currently with Reno's D league team. He might be worth a look IMO.

    Play Chase at PG. His handle's good enough and Martin's been eating most of the minutes at SG.

    Look, there is no reason to risk any further injury to Lowry, or to overwork Brooks.

    We need someone to play in case Lowry can't go.

    I think we should draft a pure pg. AB is a combo guard. Some people say Lowry can pass the ball to Yao well. In fact, Yao and Lowry played together last season, but I didn't see that happened.
