chw42 4,102 Posted January 15 I couldn't care less about this game with the LaVine injury, but holy shit they've looked like a high school team in the past 2 games. This team just got reality checked into next Tuesday. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chisoxfn 1,508 Posted January 15 Oh geeze. I just hope Lavine is okay. Team has to use these two drubbings as a way to get back grounded and get back doing the little things right, especially knowing that Zach is clearly out for at least a while (hopefully we get good news and it isn't anything serious and he can come back fast).

Chisoxfn 1,508 Posted January 15 Just saw the video - hopefully it is good news that he walked off pretty okay (without help) but who knows. Also - for the teammates these can be the types of things when they happen in a game where the team just loses focus (and can partially explain a drubbing). Would love to see a run in them in the 2nd half so they don't have back to back 30 point losses to 2 of the best teams in the NBA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dick Allen 5,396 Posted January 15 The guy on Twitter who is usually right doesn't think it's anything too bad. Seems to think meniscus is the worst case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chisoxfn 1,508 Posted January 15 I am hoping Zach’s injury gets confirmed as mild and we are looking at a 1-3 week timeline vs 1-3 months. At this point can’t be major structural - so either meniscus or more normal swelling/slight strain is my guess. Hopefully just slight strain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chisoxfn 1,508 Posted January 15 I get too many Rose flashbacks though. I remember when he had the meniscus tear and I got all excited yet he still missed the whole season (despite fact other players had came back from similar injury in 10-20 days). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, the way Zach lands on some of his dunks and layups makes me a bit weary. Granted, he doesn't drive to the rim as much as Rose did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Comes at a tough time for Bulls given how many back to backs they have. NBA should have extended season or cancelled some games. Putting this much on players is a disaster waiting to happen.
