    We had great seats - first row.
    I think the card tables in front of us were about $300/each seat.

    Guess he's hurt now too. No mention of the extent but this was in Buha's article today:

    Fire every last medical staff member.

    2 weeks? f*** you. You're not even trying. Every single player on a roster cannot be 2 weeks away. Look at any other team's medical report. It's not possible.

    A right wrist “Fracture” …. people expect sooner? 2 weeks seems a reasonable time to “formally” “ballpark” a state of the injury evaluation. Would you all been happier with 3 weeks?

    If it’s actually a fracture, it’s going to be more than 2 weeks.

    i feel like it's trolling at this point.

    cookie said it--it's basically that it kind of can't be two weeks in any case. they can look at it in two weeks, but if it's broken, it's longer than two weeks. why say this? breaks to the wrist are generally 6-8 weeks. i'm sure they'll evaluate him in two weeks. but that's not information.

    notice not a peep on vincent after the surgery. the two kinds of information from the medical staff is two weeks or freaking nothing.

    Yeah, my problem is every single diagnosis is 2 weeks. Amputation. Dislocated knee. Sprained ankle. Hang nail. Groin spasms. Cough. All the same. Verbiage is all very vague as well.

    I don't pay attention to them all, but will see the opposition's report the day we play them. Ours sucks. Grizz and Warriors in particular do a really good job at articulating the issue and give a fairly clear timeline. I also wonder what preventative care we're doing because our guys drop like flies.

    I hope the league steps in at some point and tells us to cut it out because with gambling sponsors transparency on the stuff matters more. We're not Bill Belichick being dodgy on a Sunday pre-game injury report to keep the opposition on their toes. We're just copy and pasting last week's latest injury while changing the player's name.

    Regarding the quality of the staff itself, it is probably small and we're likely on the cheaper side if I had to guess. If we're that way with our coaching staff and with our front office (many who cover the team say we have one of the thinnest front offices in the league), it's a logical deduction we approach the med staff with the same mom and pop shop, penny pinching mentality.

    6-10, 250 with a 7'4 wingspan. I hate that we always play so small with AD out. Watch Rui and Lebron get crushed at center.

    Jaren Jackson 20/20 game incoming :ADGlance:

    I was thinking he was legit 7’ but just checked and says 6’11”. I know elsewhere some say 6’10” but I think he’s bigger than that. Regardless you are correct about J.J. probably going off on us.
