Sprained ankles are killer. I sprained my ankle pretty bad about a month ago playing basketball, and I am now just starting to be able to run and jump. It still feels a bit awkward. Of course Cisco is a pro athlete and I have to believe he is getting better treatment, but sprained ankles take some time to heal up.
Well there are a lot of different degrees of "sprain". The worst of them are basically torn ligaments and take along time to get over. But there are a lot of lesser degrees that you can bounce back from much quicker. With a mild sprain and some pain tolerance, you can brace it up and be back out there in a week, although maybe not at 100%. Thinking Cisco's was somewhere in between.
Yeah ankle problems are no good- I had my series of them and it really is an injury you have to let heal completely otherwise it's really easy to tweak it over and over again. Plus, you begin to favor one ankle more and that isn't good either.
Hopefully he will be back soon though, because we miss him out there and being able to go to an 8 man rotation will help us down the road.

Good, Garcia will help so much... he was big before the injury.

He was playing well, but its going to be interesting to see where the minutes come from now. Maybe drop the Og to a pure platoon betwwen Kevin and Bonzi, and then have Cisco get all the backup min behind Mike and Ron -- maybe 20 or so. But I have a feeling that one of that group is going to get a bit squeezed for PT on any given night.
i love ron bringing the ball up the court... i have never seen or heard of him getting picked... he is a good dribbler and I want the teams leader brining it up if he can. I just dont like ROn taking his 1v1 jumpers nad tryign to do it by himself. we a passing team. he will get his open looks. I like his 1v1 post up tho
Now? I don't think it matters since I think we couldn't have anyone stay with us for the playoffs if we signed someone (since we likely will make them), and wouldn't really know the team. Unless it'd be Luis Flores, who got released from his Spain team. It's going to be Bibby/Garcia/Artest/likely Hart soon (based on what Rick said about why he's been using a 7-man rotation last week) at the point.
?
We're fine.
Our system has never made much use of pure PGs anyway. We've got a couple of low level guys on the roster, but Rick has decided, probably correctly, that he'd rather have better players on the court playing somewhat out of position than play scrubs just because they are supposed to play a certain position.
