So we should expect CJ back by the end of this week.

The original timeline for Hawkins would be end of this week if I recall. I guess it just depends on how that back is responding, soft tissue injuries like that are tricky.

If Herb is on schedule, we should hear about him doing 5 on 5 by this weekend

I was hoping that CJ would play tomorrow. We'll see.

Looks like they will take the full amount of time they said it would be

Interesting no mention of Herb. Maybe might take him a bit longer. I did see a clip of him shooting with both hands the other day though.

I'm assuming Murrays ramp up won't be as long as CJ and Hawkins. I'm sure he's been working out and doing drills with his other hand. He'll be trying to knock off rust more than anything.

Hamstrings and backs are balky.

I just wanted bring up how this injured Duke player who was drafted first overall as well is fully engaged with his team and coach and helping them on a 6 game win streak without him. Meanwhile we can’t even spot our first overall player from Duke who drafted years prior to Paolo on the bench.

Not sure if this was reported but I don’t think we see him again this season. Shams stated yesterday now that hes out for considerable amount of time before he had reported 4-6 weeks. I would at this rate be shocked if Zion came back before the trade deadline and surprised if he came back this season.

Yeah, it's pretty obvious that Zion is not a very good teammate.

Why does it always seem we are the only team in the NBA that has this bad of injury problems?


Could it be that the Smoothie King and Dome were built on a old indian burial site? Don't mess with the dead's resting places.

Fire the conditioning guy, trainers, then fire Willie Green.

BI? In the huddle. Herb? In the huddle and coaching harder than Willie Green. Zion? Absent.

It sure would be nice if our local media would ask the simple and important questions.

I expect CJ and Hawk back this weekend. I expect Herb back right after Thanksgiving, and possibly Murray that weekend too.

Meanwhile, we have to worry about Zion gaining 40 pounds as he sits out during the holiday season

He will and this is why his season is over.

He won’t be available until Feb, and there’s only 20 ish games left after that.

There’s also this looming thing called 12? Losses now so there’s zero initiative to bring anyone back prematurely.


They won’t have a fanbase next year if they don’t blow this up

I'm not thinking about Zion.

If we have everyone but him, we still should win some damn games. If we can't win games then guys like Dejounte, BI, Herb, and Trey aren't who we thought they were.

A lineup of

Murray
Herb
BI
Trey
Missi

CJ
Jose
Hawk

Should be able to win games

If it can't then we should blow it up regardless of Zion

I agree. We should have everyone but Jose and Zion back by the first week of December.
