Do you think this is going to push back any trades management might have made? Or this wont have any effect?

LOL Mary. You have a one track mind.
Anyway, I'd love to see more Nash/Dragic.

No idea, I have no access to what trades are being discussed as of now.
The cyst was supposed to be small. I am concerned because earlier the doctors said not to operate because it was too small. Thus the meeting I think. Did the cyst grow? Obviously it is impacting his game. Is there extended danger because of the small size of the cyst?

I dont think it will effect trades with teams that have a bad record and are Tanking-for-Turner.

A blessing in disguise for Dragic.

Yup. That 3-point dagger was simply awesome.
Love LB but this is probably the best thing for him and the team.

If he is out for five weeks Suns can't trade him! Another plus, lol.

It's still possible to trade LB, although I'm not saying I would endorse such a trade.

hopefully he can come back in time for the playoffs healthy. He was really dragging the team down with his poor shooting and decision making.

I thought they couldn't trade a player if he was injured? Or maybe that is just in video games

You can trade an injured player if they pass the other teams' "physical" or if they waive the physical.
If only that was possible in 2k10.

LB has not been himself all season. that wrist its just killing him. report says 4-6 weeks. I would rest him for 8 weeks and bring him back for the last playoff push.

You just KNEW LB was simply NOT right. Let him sit--good. Get him healthy and get him right.

Exactly what I said last night. I am glad he is getting the surgery he needs, and I wish him a speedy recovery.

Yeah please stop the LB hate. The guy is a great player and true pro on and off the court. He is hurt so a drop in performance would be expected. At least he tried to go in spite of the injury all this time. If he would have given up early all the fans would have called him a puss. Get healthy LB!

I'm happy Dragic is getting more time though, and finishing game's pretending he's Brandon Roy or Kevin Durant or something. LB needed surgery. He cost us alot by playing. Hopefully he recovers completely. I doubt the FO is gonna trade him, so he needs to be able to shoot
