Salmons Injured?

Deep thigh bruises are pretty debilitating, and I would imagine that this contusion with Salmons would have to be reasonably significant in order for it to even be mentioned. On the other hand you couldn't possibly play through an NBA season without recieving multiple contusions over the course of the season so hopefully this is just an owie.
As an aside, might be an opportunity for Cisco, who can bring many of the same things Salmons does, just sans brain unfortunately. Not necessarily much falloff though if he can stay in control.

Agreed. We need his assists and rebounds. Not to mention the stats don't quite show that he can get some hustle blocks and steals as well. But it is time for Garcia to get some extended playing time and hopefully he will knock down his shots. Between Garcia and Salmons we should have all the offense/defense from the 2/3 positions that we need.
ummmmm, a knee to the thigh hampered Martin for weeks. (Was that last year?) I remember being amazed that a "bruise" could impair him for so long. 
A hip contusion really slowed Ron down last year as well, thanks Ostertag!
Bibby probably has tons of contusions and plays through pain. He and my man Brett Favre are Iron Men!
I'm coming to the same conclusion. I'm a bit disappointed that he isn't quiker and more athletic, bigger sort of like Bonzi...but the guy is a great defender and gets the job done while not being flashy. He is also versatile and really fills the role of a great utility guy off the bench that plays positions 1-3.
Cisco can do the same thing and I feel as much more upside, he just needs to calm down and be smarter about things. He definately has the potential, is younger and is making peanuts compared to John who is really getting paid too much, but you do pay for versatility, I think it's a big much still, but I do like what I see in John. He does stuff very calm and has great confidence, if Cisco could get just a little bit of this confidence/coolness under pressure, he'd be amazing. He was playing great up until the injury last season and has been a shell of himself since.

Wow, I thought about Kevin 1st too! Yeah it did bother him for awhile last season.

Ostertag must hate us. He stole our money than injured our best player the year after. What's next he convinces the Maloofs to hire him as GM over Petrie and does his best Zeke impression?
