Spo gonna pull some Spo chit and bring him in from the deep freeze as a starter ain’t he.

Tbh we probably need Gogi as a starter if Dipo is out. Play him his 24-25 mins and get Nunn/Herro backcourt going.

I don't believe Nunn can be classified as a valid substitute for Oladipo. Victor is a clear class above, both offensively and defensively.

That Nunn and Herro back court works. Spo is starting Nunn though without a doubt. That’s his M.O.

Thankful you still have Nunn as insurance, but let’s hope that injury isn’t too serious.

A win is a win! GG OP!! I do not have a good feeling about Dipo though. You know this injury is not going to turn out well.

Nunn can score 30 one game but in the playoffs hell be softer than a pupu platter mentally. Nunn over Dipo is like playing Tyler Johnson over Tyler Herro.

Agreed but this team has proven it can get by with Nunn.

Looked like a torn minuscus perhaps

That’s a month or two if I’m not mistaken

When? A few regular season games? I really hope he proves me wrong when it really matters

It's not about getting by, it's the fact it looked like Heat may had found a third star. Now he may be seriously hurt.

Watching Goran tonight, he looked awful but after looking at the boxscore he was a +5.

We may have lost Dipo for the year.

I’m savoring......

Yup, taste like ****!

Meh if he’s done at least we can move on in the off season instead of making a costly mistake.


Would prefer him to play well next take us over the top.

“He will be evaluated further tomorrow”= MRI.

So we wait. Not a good sign obviously.

5 turnovers with only 3 assists

0-4 from three

Played poop defense

Dragic's +/- isn't telling accurate tale.

He's always injured. This is why I was never a fan. I support the trade though, because of the compensation only. Want no part of him on a long term deal in the summer. No way in hell.
