Couldn't understand why he didn't play more in this game... even if he was injured, it didn't seem to affect him that much, and he was just stellar when he came in. **** LB for playing Kwame **** Brown ahead of Tyrus.

Diaw played fine, but does he really need to go for 41 minutes? Kwame was awful as well... Tyrus has to get more time.



He's hurt. Bad arch or something. Heard on the radio while driving to the game tonight. And his points tonight were the result of GREAT passes from his teammates, nothing TT really created on his own. He's not out there draining jumpers....

I found this thing from Bonnell about having minor plantar fascitis. http://www.charlotteobserver.com/2010/1 ... nicks.html

Apparently he also hurt his quad in the 4th?


There is that, and it looks like he has had an injured wrist (right i think) in the last few games too. I spotted him grimacing in pain a few times after a few dunks/rejections. If you add up injuries to his arches, quads and possible wrist, then it could explain the low minutes. And if its not injuries, then screw LB.

anyone who has dealt with plantar fascitis knows what a crippling and frustrating injury that can be.

It's horrible once you get moving around on it the wrong way. Really bad when you wake up too.

Well my brother does have down syndrome. So it's not like we can hold him to the same standard as Tyrus Thomas (though I have my suspicions, he couldn't have gotten so tall with downs).
