Kevin Martin (wrist update)

Not sure if this will get locked or not, but figured I'd update the uninformed.

Looks like it'll be AT LEAST 2 weeks until he could possibly be back. Kinda sucks because I'm goin to the Kings/Magic game on the 12th and sittin front row right behind the Magic bench, would've loved to see him play. But anyway, there it is.

Nice to know that we have a definite timetable. Hopefully we won't be without Evans for that same length of time, or else things could get rather ugly...

agreed... glad they pulled out that one against Denver... but this philly game showed what we can really turn into without a "go-to" guy i.e. Martin/Evans. But thank god it was KMarts off hand as well, I'm optimistic about his return, should be able to pick up where he left off shooting-wise. And yea hopefully Evans swelling has gone down, my guess is he should be good to go Friday against LA... but with the refs at staples... he might be better off just taking the extra rest.

Agreed. We are able to score consistently, we did last night and scored 106. But sometimes we need a guy to go off and torch the other team. I think thats where KMart can be the most valuable to us, especially since he can get his own shot.

we suck defensively, that's the problem..

100% agree.

I'm happy to hear that Kevin Martin's ok. I wouldn't mind him sitting out some extra time either, just to be on the safe side.
