He broke his left hand, but broke his right thumb in college.

Wrong.

It was his left hand in college, but it was his right thumb.

Right hand injury. Twice in one year. Thumb is part of the same hand. At some point you need to worry. He has broke a bone in both hands. 3 times.

So it is not wrong.

Seems like a very quick timeline for a return so I'll assume it's a very minor fracture.

He broke his right thumb in college, not his hand. Semantics.

But, sure, freak out about it if you want.

If I learned anything from the Six Million Dollar Man, it's that Caleb is going to come back with bionic hands and superhuman strength. It might be a blessing in disguise.

The real question is. Who starts in his place?

Pat? *shudder*

Noa? (he'll be fouled out by the end of the first quarter)

Slide Stix to PF and start Claxton? (This will mean we'll see more Collins *see Pat above*)

Miller? (who has been benched lately).

Or slide Matas to the PF and start Okoro at SF or whoever else?

It'll be interesting.

It is not a freak out. I am pointing out a pattern and just because you do not want to acknowledge it. You play word games.

You have no idea what part of the thumb that was broke. You have no idea what part of the hand that was broke.

They could be related or do you not realize injuries in the same area is something to be concerned with.

They might need to give him a screw to stabilize the issue. This could effect his shooting. I am looking at as a setback. Plus it is a problem you need to resolve.

He has broken 3 bones in both hands in less then a year. You need to figure it out.

Ugh I hate that it's the same type of injury. I hope it's not gonna be like this forever.

We're getting Powell back, so the lineup works itself out:
Okoro / Norm / Giddey / Matas / Claxton
Jones / Hawkins / Pat / Noa / Smith

This is a time for Matas and Giddey to prove themselves.

Frail, bony, sissy hands. Should have drafted Acuff.


“Sissy?” Yikes. Someone is having some feelings today. Maybe have your hormones checked.

Pat should start. He is limited but he will allow the others to make plays.

You sure it's not a freak out? This response seem kind of a freak out. You've gone to almost the worst case scenario.

I'm not worried about. Not yet.

Sometimes people have bad luck.

What word games am I playing?

Whatever guy, you have a great rest of your day/evening/whatever.

Yeah, GoBlue was definitely not being serious.

Are incapable of actually having someone not agree?

I said 3 hand injuries is a reason to worry.
You disagree. I find with it. I don't see Caleb as the second coming and this year was going to suck anyway.

So I am not freaked out because a 1 and 9 team lost a player.

You are playing word games. I never called you anything for disagreeing with me. Everyone is allowed a different opinion.

Get out of your I am right bubble. Opinions are like back sides. Everyone has one. I never once insulted your opinion.

Claxton starting and sliding Stix to PF is the obvious path. But Pat has really done a decent job when given the opportunity this season. Starting him shouldn't reflexively be treated as a joke.
