    Crap

    "Rondo is reportedly dealing with a sports hernia and will be seeing a specialist to determine the next step on Monday, Sean Kelley of ESPN radio reports. Rondo's timetable for a return likely depends on whether or not he decides to undergo surgery or try and play through it, so we'll have to wait until he visits a specialist to see what route he ends up taking. Either way, it's certainly concerning for his availability to start the season..."

    Seriously, we are cursed.

    Have the surgery tomorrow & Rondo would be back in Week 3 of season. 4-6 wk. recovery pending on Rondo's body. Assuming he's in great shape & follows recovery protocol, he could be back in week 3 of regular season. I say have surgery now.

    I don't believe in curses, but the Pelicans have had injuries ever since they changed the name to Pelicans

    I'm guessing you don't remember the Baron Davis injury years, the ending of both Mashburn and Peja's careers, Tyson foot and it's magical heal after leaving, CP3's long list of injuries, David West's back and blown out knee etc etc etc. Happened well before the Pels became a thing.

    unless there is some reason why they wouldn't, I'm thinking the Pels need to make a move and go after a Ty Lawson now...from what I gather, he still possesses the skills to run the point for this team...

    He signed a contract in China.

    Frankly it’s not the starting unit I’m worried about so much as the backup. We have Finch who just got done running a league leading offense through a facilitating big man like Cousins and mostly combo guards. It’s the drop off from Jrue to everyone else that concerns me. Davis and Cousins can get you 50-60 a night, but we have to find a way to get 40-50 more. I’m getting flashbacks to the CP3/Chandler/West era where we just didn’t have a bench to speak of outside one or two players like Pargo and in part because we didn’t have someone that could facilitate when Paul was off the court. Until right near the end of the CP3 era that is.

    Can we contact Rondo and let him know about water only fasting?

    I got a feeling they are just being cautious and he won't require surgery

    If it's exactly a month, that's about 11 or 12 games. So not a terrible long time. But still annoying as hell.

    This injury is not so big a deal. The Hill injury is a bit meh since he should be back for the postseason. It's more the impending feeling of doom it cast over our PTSD riddled fan hearts. And Spaniard recounting all of my past traumas isn't helping!

    You can say that about an injury by itself. But now there is the potential of being without 2 starters for an extended period of time. This team does not have a lot of depth, so the cumulative injuries are becoming an issue.

    We are so cursed (Rondo Injury)

    Ian Clark, Jrue and Moore are going to have to deliver.
    I think we can get the numbers we need for PPG to win.

    AD: 28ppg
    Cousins: 25ppg
    Jrue: 17ppg
    Cunningham: 7ppg
    Moore: 13ppg
    Crawford: 11ppg
    Clark: 6ppg
    Miller: 7ppg
    Diallo: 4ppg
    Ajinca: 3ppg
    Tony Allen: 4ppg

    I think we'll get about 105 ppg
    I think we'll hold teams to 102ppg
