Marc Gasol Out Indefinately

[SD2042]

Grizz center Marc Gasol will be out indefinately after reaggraving an adominal tear @ New Orleans,. Gasol had endured this issue throughout the season and will miss some time.

Here to hoping for a full recovery Marc!

Do you guys think he will be back playoff time?

This is potentially devastating. He's the one guy we can't afford to lose.

As for when he'll be back, I expect him to be back by playoff time. He has a little more than three weeks til playoffs, which sounds about right for an abdominal tear.

But in the meantime, we have to get big time games from all the other guys. I think the key guys offensively are Conley, Prince, and Bayless. All three have to look to be very aggressive. Randolph is a factor as well, but we just need him to be himself, and keep the bad shooting nights to a minimum.

Arthur and Ed Davis have to buckle down on the defensive end, playing fast aggressive help defense to try to make up for Gasol's absence.

didn't Darrell Arthur miss the entire season because of the same injury???

wait that was a a torn pectoral. I guess that is worse. he was out 4 months. Geez Arthur has missed a ton of time to injury over his career!

Marc opposed to shutting it down until the Playoffs. Says he'll return before then:

Well he came back fast as crap, but he's obviously not 100%.

We need to limit his minutes more than last night.

Marc is at the age he needs to give greater care to his body. We're locked on the playoffs. A healthy Marc and an 8th seed is worth 10x an injured Marc and the 3rd seed
