probably as shocked as everyone else we have a winning record.

Rick Bonnell just told me Ewing will most likely be the coach tonight.

No Clifford and no Jefferson.

When Jefferson heard the news he aggravated his ankle again.

 

 

This guy ever going to play?  Typical we spend all that money and THIS happens.

I don't think they want to rush him back again.

I can respect that but he should be ready by now and it's not like he's running around like a PG.  Dude is a post player lol.

 

I guess if we didn't have a winning record I wouldn't care as much.  Silly to think we'll keep it anyway lol.

A sprained ankle, especially one with a prior injury history, is gonna take 8-10 weeks to heal. Props to Big Al for just trying it on Opening Night. If nothing else, the dude showed he wants to play.

Clifford is still in the hospital, I hope something isn't seriously wrong.

Get well coach!  What's up with all the coaches health problems these days??  It's not like stress is anything new to the job.
