Get well soon MKG, just as he was seeming to get it altogether.

any word on how long he will be out?

TheKingofSting · Post #1544 » by **TheKingofSting** » Mon Nov 3, 2014 3:43 am

LP did a google search and rib contusions can keep you out from a few days to a few weeks so there is a gray area there.

At least it doesn't seem to be too serious.

Every season something has gone wrong for him and he just needs a bit of luck.

Hopefully he plays against the Pelicans

As much as I want him to play, I'd rather he not play hurt.

Rest him even if he wants to play, which is a very good chance.

you must have had bruised ribs at some time during your footy career.

nothing you can do with them, little risk you can do more damage, just annoying.

I most definitely have Sach and they are a prick of a thing!

While MKG's toughness cannot be doubted, I must admit that I fear the tentative MKG 1.0 will show up, as has happened with prior injuries.

Listed as questionable, no practice today so won't know anything until tomorrow.

He will want to play against his former teammate AD so badly.

Awesome, hopefully we can break our streak of futility against the Hawks tomorrow night.

Hopefully it doesn't take long to get back into opening night form for him. Glad to see him back.

Didn't CDR hit that game winner over them last year?

Yeah. I believe it was the second to last game of the season. When Clippers signed him and I dove in a google frenzy on CDR, I realized that I had already forgotten about that game winner happening. But other than that - good times.

We need a win tonight before we go on our West Coast road trip, I'd be surprised if he doesn't play.

I've been keeping track of Leonard this season in comparison to MKG, which I think MKG is the next Kawhi. At this point I think MKG can be a lot better. Leonard has struggled in every single facet of the game, even defensively tonight. No wonder the Spurs didn't even try to bite on his agent throwing out a max contract.

He supposedly can't really see though due to conjunctivitis.
