I have a pretty good idea how this will turn out. Nene gives a few good games (or quarters) only to pull up lame again. He'll try to play through to for a few games only to be shelved again.

win win. if he's healthy well and good. if not he'll struggle a few games then get shut down making our tanking pretty much a done deal. come back on draft day. this rebuild has taken too long and all the players i wanted mkg, jonas/enes were gone before our slot. i'm apathatic lets get rid of grunfeld and hire someone like rich cho...rich ho perhaps?

Nene should go into the starting lineup with Okafor, Vesely should go in the DNP-CD bin, Booker should be the first PF off the bench, and Seraphin should be the backup center.

If they're actually trying to win a game.


Bahh

Ves isn't the problem. Ves had a great first quarter last game and he has played well in other games. Ves should continue to start. The kid was first man down the court. Game before he school Favors.

Kevin is the one you should be busting on. Kevin is 275 and plays like he is 175.

Kevin in not a center. He is a back up scoring PF afraid mix it up. He is a shorter version of McGee.

There is still hope for Kevin longer term but right now, you can't count on him for anything. Zero rebounds in 6 quarters. Please.

Your hate is misguided.

Umm, how is that hate? Statistically, both of them have been terrible. At least Kevin is not a self-check on offense, but he really needs to play tough and stop rebounding like a guard.

Nene says there is a chance for tonight but as of right now he wouldn't be able to go.

“It’s a chance,” Nene said, scrunching his face as he stretched. “If you ask now, I’d say no.”

They are definitely rushing him, they are desperate.

Nene ain't Shaq or Duncan. He won't make enough of a difference to help us win.

Ernie desperate??? Noooo, not him!

Convo:

Ernie: So Nene, how's your foot feeling?
Nene: Its getting better slowly, but still not 100% yet
Ernie: So your ready to go?
Nene: Not quite, I think I think I need a bit more time
Ernie: Well it sounds like your real close, we could really use you out there
Nene: No doubt, but I want to make sure it's a 100%
Ernie: I hear ya, think your ready to play this week?
Nene: Again, lets not rush this
Ernie: Ah, day by day. I understand. The team will be excited to here you'll be back in the next game or two!
Nene: But that's not what I said
Ernie: Nene, don't worry about thing. You'll be fine, you'll fit right back into the swing of things and we'll start winning some games.
Nene: But I'm still experiencing some pain
Ernie: Don't worry, our doctors will clear you and we can't wait for you to suit up next game!
Nene: (Shakes head)
Ernie: Hey, don't let missing all that time get you down, no one thinks you've let the organization down.
Nene: (murmurs something under breath)
Ernie: Keep in mind that it's easier to trade someone to a contender when their healthy and playing well.
Nene: (smiles) I'll be ready.
