Luke hasn't been back on court since pre-Summer League injury...

:banghead:

DWANE CASEY: We have an idea of what we want to do. It’s not going to be given to anyone but we have a good idea of what we want to do as far as who the other two starters are, what we need in those two roles. Stanley (Johnson) has played really well, Glenn Robinson has played really well, Luke has been hurt since Summer League but before that he was playing really well. We’ve got a lot of different options at the two and three positions.


To me, both Stanley and Glenn are starters. Reggie (Bullock) is a starter in my mind and Luke is getting there. Luke has been hurt and it’s unfair to him right now because those other guys have worked all summer, they’ve gone through the system all summer and Reggie (Jackson) and Luke are kind of playing catchup from being injured all summer.

Not as big an issue as Jackson because Bullock arguable is the starter at the 2-guard anyways and GRIII can play there as well, Galloway, Thomas and Brown round out the depth. But wasn't it sold as no big thing when it happened and he was missing SL more as a precaution?

Eh.

I'm kind of beyond frustration with the team. Whatever happens happens.

Exactly. This franchise is stuck in quicksand with the Reggie, Dre and Blake contracts. Nothing important will happen until the contracts expire or the front office tanks.

Whatever happens, happens. Honestly looks like it may be early to mid 2020’s until a new piston era starts and the effects of SVG are gone.
