Agreed. No need to play him this series unless he's absolutely needed.

I expect him in Game 4 in limited minutes.

Still a chance he is in the lineup in game 3 imo

If/when Rob come back and plays just 15-20 minutes, it will still provide such a good phycological lift. Not to mention keep Horford-Theis fresher. Please please give me some Timelord already.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

I am still hoping game 3, but expect game 4 as the target.

Idk, we don't have a track record for Ime's comments but just yesterday he said they don't expect him back this series.

I think we're creating unfair pressure on Rob by saying stuff directly contradictory to the coach and saying he'll be back in this series let alone in a game from now.

Is playing 4 on 4 at NBA level supposed to be easier on knee than 5 on 5? My recall from street ball days is that 4 on 4 is high speed lay up drill and a real gasser. Seems to me if he is playing 4 on 4 he is cleared to play and it’s a matter of being ready and conditioned for a real playoff game.

He's done 3 on 3, and 4 on 4. 5 on 5 is next.

Then the team runs some 6 on 6, just to be on the safe side.

Will this get him ready for when it’s 5 on 7 in Brooklyn?

Timelord isn’t needed this series. Let him get fully healthy.

I had heard he’s completely healthy, what I had no clue about was where his conditioning is at. That’s why everyone with the media had been speculating game 5, was the word amongst all the writers.

This is better lol.
