Earl Clark out indefinitely

With a strained groin...that sucks...really interesting in what he has to offer. Seems to be on his last leg in the NBA.

i'ts not that bad. Hill will be back in a few days.

Hill's got a back thing that could potentially be ongoing.

So take away one of the 3'rd string minutes, factoring in Pau's already gassed, and we're left with either playing Hill more minutes at backup (where we aren't sure about his back yet), or ask a 36 year old Jamison to pick up those minutes when apparently MB wants him at the 3.

Not saying we won't be fine, but this could lead to something else.

End of the bench guys are important. Even if they're just a body in there 5 minutes a game. It adds up.

lol Clark is so bad i would rather see Ebanks play PF for stretches. This is no big loss.

Will MWP do for a few minutes at the 4? He's strong enough to be there for a few minutes IMO.

I see what you did there.

If I'm not mistaken, indefinitely just means they are not sure about a timetable for it to heal -- not that it won't.

Preseason sure

In the RS though,if Hill and Howard return as expected it won't matter....Clark wouldn't have played anyway
