Considering the injury in both cases weren't as bad as his reaction to them. If you saw the injury to Marcus Lattimore, then you know his reaction wasn't as bad as Austin Rivers', Yeah he's tough, if tough is not really being hurt that bad in the first place an being able to play. All he was missing was a wheel chair so he could Paul Pierce it.
I say that all in fun, I'm ready to see the kid start next to Eric Gordon and since technically EG is going to be controlling the ball hopefully he can become a sniper for now at the point, get to the basket when he has to and knock down his free throws.
LETS GET IT ON!
good that means when i go to the game wednesday both will be in action.
^^ Not really sure. They haven't really said much about him. I guess we'll hear more in the next day or two.

Thanks Hunny!!........did you see what I did there? LOL
Hopefully we can keep EJ healthy for a couple months in a row and then before the trade deadline unload him for a nice package like what Okc got for Harden. It's almost unfortunate that Houston got Harden because they would have been one of the primary bidder's for EJ's services when we decide to unload him.
Not saying we will unload him, but I have my suspicions about it still.
thanks for this news. suffering through this saints game & needed something.
Good lord let basketball season start. Where the hurt can only last a few days.
Lattimore was in shock. You could see it in his face. Anyways I have torn my knee up (just two ligaments) and my leg dislocated like Lattimore's. Honestly I have had way worse reactions to rolled ankles and stuff. It's almost as if it looks so bad you don't know what to think. With that said though, yea Austin's reaction didn't look like he could take pain too much.
Welp, due to Sandy, I couldn't fly out to my clients this week. IE i'll be at the season opener wednesday!!!
"I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

Hopefully those two can somehow stay healthy most of this year. I'm talking 70+ games from each, but I would be satisfied with 65+ from each.
We've already seen in preseason so far that with good guard play, we can compete with good teams. But with bad guard play, we'll get blown out by the bad teams.
Agreed. We won't get a kings ransom for several reason.
Only one team offered him a max deal and that's the one team we can't trade him to at all. I doubt Gordon would agree to play for a team after they send us the assets to justify the trade.
If we trade Gordon I highly doubt it will be before his no trade clause expires.

Status of Jason Smith (shoulder) still being monitored, but he practiced today. Monty: "We'll see tomorrow (to make further evaluation)."
Jim Eichenhofer @Jim_Eichenhofer
Austin Rivers (ankle) practiced again today and will be ready to play Wednesday vs. San Antonio
11m Jim Eichenhofer @Jim_Eichenhofer
Monty hopeful Gordon will play Wednesday, may use him for now as a reserve. Monty: "It might be beneficial to have him come off the bench."
13m Jim Eichenhofer @Jim_Eichenhofer
Monty indicated Al-Farouq Aminu will start at small forward after good game at Heat. Monty: "He's going to command that spot right now."
Jim Eichenhofer @Jim_Eichenhofer
Anthony Davis on facing Tim Duncan on Wed.: "He's a Hall of Famer and a great guy. I'm looking forward to seeing how I match up against him"
I'm ok with Gordon off the bench for now. Bring him in slowly. I would start Mason at SG to bring perimeter shooting and help out with the ball-handling.
