is cook coming back for round 2??? he would be great against detroit...putting another shooter out there forces detroit not to double dwight and just kills philly even more

GO PHILLY!!!!!!

He was ruled out for the first round, and his status for round 2 was "unknown" as of 4 days ago.

Can't put Gortat on the IL! He'll destroy the Pistons.

We will need Cook I think, so I hope he can come back. He is at least a big dude that can do some banging and spread the floor, which is the magic position for this teams success.

i really hope Cook comes back, we could use him. He spaces the floor so well and provides some much needed relief for Rashard and Hedo.

I think Cookie still has his hard cast so I doubt he'd be ready until at least later in the series.

PLAY GORTAT!

More like feed him the ball, he's been wide open on several occasions this series.

Gorat has been getting minutes that normally would go to Cook. But with Turkoglu struggling with his shot, we might see spot minutes where Hedo is benched and Lewis slides to the 3 for Cook to play the 4.

cook would be our anti sheed

No, that's not the rotation. Gortat gets Foyle's minutes, no one else's.

Bogans is the one that most benefited from Cook's absence. Cook normally goes in for Turk or Lewis at the 5 minute mark in the first quarter (which Bogans now does) and then Turk (or Lewis) goes in for the other one late in the first or early in the second.

Dang.

I was hoping someone wanted Brian Cardinal.

He's still alive?
