This is a tough hit, our wing defense off of the bench has been horrendous.

The amount of guys I've seen get poked in the eye this season, and Matt is the one that gets a retinal tear. GOD DAMN!

Yeah, this isn't the best news right now. Hopefully he can get right and be healthy. The good thing is that it's early in the season, so as long as he's good to go later on I'll be happy. And Bullock will get more minutes now, although I haven't really seen him play defense yet.

Bullocks to be holding things down well. Still need Barnes at least he can't be fined while out.

More minutes for Bullock. Blessing in disguise. We'll need Matty B down the stretch though.

Agreed, this could be good for bullock to get some time in and it gives Matt more time to get his legs under him.

Think we are going to miss him a bunch when we face the Pacers.

Same thing happened with Bledsoe. VDN hardly played him, then Baron went down. All of a sudden Bledsoe is playing starter minutes, and was pretty bad at first, but learned quick and we all know the rest. I know Bullock wont be getting starter minutes, but some run every game will be good for him.

Kind of surprised Doc went against his wording and has used full bench mob often. Not as long of stretches as Vinny but still. If Dudley's knee gets worse and he has to sit I could see Reggie starting.

Dudley need to be traded. Caron 2.0 dem knees. :nonono:

Judging by the way his left eye looks in this picture, he's going to be out for awhile longer....

In all seriousness, I hope he got some good news and can return to practice.

Cleared to play. Rockin the Amare glasses. Might play tonight. If not, next game.

Great news

Sucks he has to wear the glasses hopeful won't impact his shooting.
