We won't know anything until shootaround noon ET when they interview Ime. Unless something's leaked post-MRI. Where's reload (and his connect) when you need him?

We’ve had terrible run with injury the past couple of seasons so hopefully a change of luck with this one.

What report? Not gonna believe anything until it's from a reliable source.

I hope it's not from the Twitter guy who has 81 followers.

Facebook. Good news then. That's a great source of reliable info.

We've had a significant injury every postseason starting with KG in 2009.

That would pretty much shut down our chances of making it far in the playoffs if he tore his ACL.

Right?

Get out of here with that “report” crap if it’s not something legit.

I’m no doctor but that doesn’t look like someone who’s done an ACL. Best case scenario he’s back on deck against Miami.

Sprained knee? Hoping a week or 2. Get him ready for playoffs. Theis works as a replacement, thank god he is here. Theis plays like Rob, kind of a 80% of Rob player.

My best guess is sprained MCL, out for a couple of weeks. They’ll be super cautious with him though, obviously.

They’ll be okay without him until the playoffs.

I mean imagine if we had to play Kornet for serious minutes...

Horford playing the remainder of the season with Theis getting a lot more playing time...JT able to play certain bigs like we saw last night...maybe sprinkler in some Kornet minutes here and there...

We may be ok for these remaining games...maybe just 10 point wins instead of 20....sigh

In any case still hoping for some good news this morning on the scan of the knee.

True.
Get him to play 1-2 games before the playoffs and keep him out until he's 100%. We just need him for the playoffs and maybe a game or 2 before to get his feet wet before the big games.
Good assessment:

Speculation but... could easily be a meniscus tear. You can play on that a bit, but it hurts. And you can't do it for long.
