Earl Clark gets MRI - sore foot

minifang · Post #1 » by **minifang** » Tue Feb 12, 2013 7:32 pm

There was no indication prior that Clark was having any issue with his foot prior. With Pau Gasol out of the lineup for the foreseeable future, Earl Clark has become an integral part of the lineup and has played well. Over the seven game road trip the Lakers just returned home from Clark averaged 12.7 points per game and 9.4 rebounds, and had a double double in four of the games.

The Lakers have two games remaining until they can hit the All-Star break, beginning tonight against the Phoenix Suns. Updates on his foot when they come in. Fingers crossed, everybody.

I know right? We have half a Dwight and all the other bigs are injured...hopefully it's nothing serious and just a precautionary test.

If Clark can't play we are pretty much doomed, out of all people it has to be our starting PF

In all honesty, our season literally hangs on the results of that MRI... Never would have thought that going into the season, but that's where we are now.

When a guy like Earl who is as JVG put it "pure of heart" succumbs to the injury curse we've had all season, then you know the basketball gods have already made their decision.

Oh well. See my sig.

We really can't afford to have him go down, otherwise we'd literally have no depth at the PF/SF spots.

The ratio of heart, intensity, and skill is 10:1 though.
