Visnovsky out for season

Zach Edey is going to be a guy that NBA teams can trust to contribute in a big way on offense, it'll just be extremely matchup dependent whether he can stay on the floor on defense.

Jaime Jaquez Jr. Has Been Waiting For This

by Kevin Yeung

Jaime Jaquez Jr. is playing meaningful playoff minutes as a rookie, showing that craft has perhaps become an underrated quality in the draft, compared to more traditional traits such as wingspan, athleticism or shooting.

Panic! In The NBA Playoffs

After a dull weekend of Game 1s, a doubleheader between Knicks/Sixers and then Nuggets/Lakers delivered an excess of drama. You never know when a basketball cult might be formed or broken.

On the Cavaliers doing to the Magic what the Knicks did to them last season, Milwaukee saving up their competitive juices, New York's rabid hustle cult, Minnesota vanquishing their playoff inexperience, a nerve-inducing game in OKC and more.

Oilers defenceman Lubomir Visnovsky is done for the season. He will undergo shoulder surgery on Thursday to repair a torn labrum.

Visnovsky was injured last week against Chicago in a harmless looking play along the end boards.

With us only being one point out of the playoffs this is a serious blow to our playoff hopes. Grebeshkov and Gilbert are really going to have to step it up.

Yeah, this is definitely hurting us. But on the plus side, we haven't been too bad since he went down (with the exception of that awful Detroit game). There's still an outside chance at the usual inexplicable late-season run, although I'm not getting my hopes up.
