I'm disappointed about the situation with Warren, not quite comfortable in saying I'm disappointed in him. But however you word it or view it, I think it's reasonable to be disappointed with the way he's playing even if he's not in anyway at fault. I'm also disappointed (or maybe frustrated) that we know so little about whatever happened.

Warren started off the season like he was clearly our best player, giving consistent effort on both ends of the court. Then, one night in the middle of November (at the Pacers I believe), for no apparent reason, he just starts playing listlessly. I remember Watson getting frustrated and actually pulling him from the game at some point, I don't even think he logged 15 minutes that night. Later on in the post game interview, Watson sounds like he's very frustrated with TJ so it's no surprise when TJ doesn't play in the next game. And then the day after that (I think) we get the "two weeks" comment which was eventually followed up by the "minor head injury" line but neither piece of information really tells us anything. And to this day, still, so many questions, so few answers.

Should be an option for McD continually talking about "playoffs".
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.

I'll go with TJ despite Knight being the logical and popular choice. If we had more information on his injury and the kind of timeline we can expect him to be "back" I'd be much more comfortable with leaving him out. But it's disappointing to see a guy who was clearly breaking out at the start of the season and showing clear improvement on the defensive end suddenly go down with a mystery injury, only to come back and become completely invisible every second game. I'm not saying he alone is disappointing but as Zelaznyrules mentioned, it's more the situation.
