KG Out, Ray Allen TBD

Unless Paul gets moved back to 2-guard it looks like Pruitt will see some real court time.

Get healthy…that’s all that matters. I just hope they don’t overwork PP to make up for it. We don’t need him getting hurt.

…..and if they sit out the rest of the season, we still win 10 more times than last year.

mcpu40….you must’ve enjoyed getting smoked at home by the memphis grizzlies last year…. :’(

Starting lineup:

TA
Rondo
Pierce
Powe
Perkins

Rearrange those capital letters = TRAPPP

mcpu,

Why bother watching the NBA at all? The whole ordeal seems to piss you off mightily.

Frontier,

it’s goin’ dowwnnnnn

Maybe KG should talk to Shaq about his abdominal strain. When Shaq had his issue when he was with the Lakers, he sought advice of some specialist whom he claims saved his career.

If Scal starts, Doc needs to be fired. Hopefully Doc will wise up and get Powe and BBD to pound the glass and muscle Haslem.

uh…this is KG we’re talking about, not Theo Ratliff or Shareef Abdul Raheem (is that dude even in the league anymore?)

This is, and i hate to use this term, a MEANINGLESS game. Now if Thursday KG still can’t go, yeah, i’ll get a little worried.

MCPU: If big $$ makes you ill, you shouldn’t watch professional sports at all. Secret: everyone is overpaid!!!

mcpu40, I was on your side of this money argument last year when management was making their embarassingly overt attempt to get into the Oden sweepstakes by sitting out healthy players. The numbers I was running were the dollars I wasted going to games where there wasn’t a pretence to compete to win games by management. You, I think, were okay with management ripping off the fans and the league last season. …….Obviously, the league wasn’t okay with it, though.

Paul, Big Al, Delonte, and Ryan sat out games due to “injury” while the second worst record was “secured”.

Garnett is clearly hurt. Ray has been fighting through injuries since last season. I’m okay with them sitting out until they’re healthy. The window with this team isn’t all that big. We need these two very healthy for the stretch run and the playoffs. We also need to see what we have in Powe, Davis, Pruitt, and Tony.

Ray more than likely caught the flu from Scal. Yet another one of the little things he does.

Hilarious post, FlCeltsFan.

I wouldn’t call them overpaid, 40. The fan decides that by their attendance or lack thereof. Since there is record attendance, hard to make that case. I wholeheartedly agree with your NFL analogy, though. McGrady, Tank Carter, Webber, Kidd, and several others are getting money they don’t deserve because they couldn’t be cut.

Unless Doc makes him sit, Ray will play. I’d bring him off the bench if I were Doc.

Lets just forfeit the rest of our games so we’ll be healthy for the playoffs! Homecourt thru all the playoffs is overrated!

let him rest all he wants. these games really dont matter. it matters in the playoffs

mcpu40 do you get paid for sick days at work…I do and so does everybody else I know…

I just heard that Scal is starting. He really earned it in his last start with 1 pt and 1 rebound, while Baby’s first and only start produced 16 pts, 9 rebounds. I told you guys Doc is terrible. Scal better come up with a Big Game.

FIRE DOC! >:(

its alot of money in the regular season game against the heat. i dont really need them to kill themselves to play when we could go on a 10 game losing streak and still be a lock for the three seed since our division is terrible.

get KG healthy, ray is the flu, so its not like its gonna be a long term injury. this is a non-issue. would you rather KG played tonight against the heat, and tore an abdominal muscle?

Yeah, yeah. We get it. They’re paid a lot of money. Welcome to 1990. They make it because we pay it. They get paid when they’re hurt because they get hurt entertaining us. Get over it.

so you pretty much just have a problem with salaries in sports in general, which is fine, but why would you come in here crying about hurt guys making money?

also, to use a famous quote “If your not worth it, people don’t pay.”

the reason professional athletes make so much is because fans pump a ridiculous amount of money into their leagues. If you break down players salaries with regards to the total profit of the nba, there actualy quite equivalent, percentage wise, to a high paying white collar positions. you want to take a stand on NBA players salaries, start a campaign to boycott the NBA’s overpriced merchandise, once the NBA stops pulling in an estimated 2 billion a year in merch alone, the players share of the money will go down, i assure you.

but until then, not real sure what the point of your post was. NBA players are paid alot, thanks for the info.

also, do we even know if KG made the trip down? seems like a cramped plane ride is probley the last thing you want for an abdominal injury. i don’t know for sure, but he may be in boston. why send him on the road trip if you know your not going to play him, which doc clearly made a decision on right after the Twolves game.
