Post any updates here.

We are all anxiously awaiting the results of KD MRI.

We also have Claxton's Hammy and LMA's sore foot.

Wondering when Harris will be available. Haven’t seen any firm estimate

Good point, almost forgot about Joe. Last I heard he was supposed to come back at the end of January. If that was the case he would be ramping up now. My guess is after the all star break.

MCL sprain. He’s out for 2 months at least.

He had a setback in rehab. So, I’d expect him to return in March.

As I figured. He'll be back by March.

The problem now is that with Kyrie only being part time, Nash is going to run Harden into the ground. Marks needs to do something

Were so ****. Everybody is injured.

This team is not even remotely good without KD.

Kyrie needs to play home games. Its our only chance to survive.

Thankfully it's a sprain and not a tear. We are going to need KD back 100% whenever that is.

It really sucks that we were about to get a chance to see our Big 3 play together for 9 of the next 11 games, and now everything is up in the air.

BTW.....I read elsewhere that some Nets fans are saying the Bruce flopped and caused KD's injury. I personally do not believe that to be the case. To me it appears Bruce had no control of his backward fall.

That’s ridiculous. Brown was shoved into Durant

Although I don't think Herb Jones set out to injure KD, it was his reckless action that led to the injury.

I can understand both guys going hard like that and KD just being unlucky, but that elbow move was nasty.

You can't be allowed to do that (or even clear out) going full steam like that. Someone's inevitably going to get injured.

TheNetsFan · Post #13 » by **TheNetsFan** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 1:29 am

And this is why you don't give games away against bad teams by resting half the team at once.

They're going to have KD skip the all-star game. I expect he'll be back right after.

Before the Cleveland game, it was reported that Joe is doing light basketball activities, so his ramp up is just starting. Probably 2-3 weeks before he's close to returning.

Joe Harris has suffered a setback in his debridement operation recovery, and sought a 2nd opinion separate from team doctors. I'm not ringing the alarm on this season, and even I can say, that's an ominous sign.

I read somewhere that the Nets confirmed, Durant will not play in the ASG. That's probably the safest route, even though I was hoping to see him there. Oh well, no biggie, let's get him healthy and firing on all cylinders for the stretch run.

Nic has returned from what seems like his 10th injury absence this season, but we held him out of Wednesday's game against Denver. Better safe than sorry, I would love to see a string of 20 straight games with Claxton healthy.

Let's pray for good health, and make our own luck.

Team needs a trade to help tie us over.

Im not against trading harris for smart or eric gordon or someone like that, but i dont need a big move. give me something like the Forbes trade denver made. Sign Isiah Thomas or Tyler Johnson or someone off the street.

We cant be rolling out Bemry/Brown/Johnson/Blake lineups and expect not to get trounced

Breaking: Joe Harris may need a second surgery.

https://www.netsdaily.com/2022/2/3/22916677/lowe-joe-harris-situation-worrisome-and-its-not-a-given-hell-return-this-season

A lot to unpack here. The key word is "may" need a second surgery. He will be reevaluated in a few weeks and there will be a decision then.

If Joe does have the surgery, the time table might mean he would be available in the playoffs, possibly not until the finals.

Do we trade Joe Harris?

Eric Gordon would be great for the Nets. I watched him play for like 5 seasons in HOU.

Tough, rugged defender that can provide a nice terciery scoring option as a driver or a shooter. I wonder if a Harris for EG trade framework would work for both teams.

Gordon has historically been injury prone, and his contract viewed as a very bad deal. I'm very worried about trading for him on an outlier year in terms of health and productivity.
