Man this is scary... Didn't his Achilles flare up last season too?

I remember Rudy having Achilles tendinitis last year but not DMC. That definitely doesn't mean it didn't happen. You're definitely right. We wouldn't recover from losing him if it became a major injury. Achilles is a b to rehab from and you lose so much explosion afterwards. DMC doesn't have any of that to spare. We need him to keep the hops he has.

Tuesday home vs Memphis
Wednesday road vs Phoenix

Assuming he comes back and everything is ok after just two games.

We really need that road win in Phoenix if we want to shoot for the 8th seed.

What's with all the achilles issues for the Kings two main guys last year into this year? Is it time to start having some conversations with the training staff? :evil:

He still will be listed as day-to-day after next 2 games. Too bad what schedule is tough tho

Now that you have your third big playing major minutes I wonder if they'll go small against this big Memphis team some or play Moreland some?

I think you play Moreland. At least that's something I'd try.

Just so you know going to Friday's game, and possibly Saturday's. Basically that means Cuz will be out do to my luck.

This is why we can't have nice things. The Jazz and Blazers who have rebuilt like 3-4 times since we last were respectable are now off to nice starts.. and the one season we had some optimism going into the season Big Cuz has to come down with this unfortunate situation

Achilles aren't things to mess with. His future is more important than rushing to make some 8th seed and get our butt handed to us by some 1 or 2 seed. This year we just need to build a base, we can do that regardless of record most likely
