It is very rare for someone to develop a frozen shoulder without any other pathology associated. Something is making that capsule to get thicker. It could be biomechanics but then again it is extremely rare on an athlete to develop this at a young age. I think is definitely a scapular issue. Maybe he suffers from a weak scapula(winging of scapula) and has been over compensating with the shoulder causing chronic inoingment and thickening of the capsule, hence the frozen shoulder. If that is the case, then he might beed more than just a few weeks to recover. I just dont understand why Philly doesnt shot him down for the year like they did with Simmons and Embid if it is really that serious. This doesn't smell right. If I am the owner of that team and I see one of my players struggling like that, I will fligh him immediately to Alabama to see Dr James Andrew and shot him down for the year.

Not only that, but His statement can also mean that: 1. He will not be making any move and let the contracts run their courses. 2. Sign 1-2 years (with second year as a team option) contracts during the next 2-3 summers, 3. Continue to be a bad team to further gather lottery picks in the next two to three years 4. Convince the fans to trust the process so he can secure a 4 year contract.

We have the worst team in the NBA and I just want our record to reflect that at the end of the year.

The funny thing is that he is not even a true point guard.

I think he just dont want to play here any longer.

I really dont know what to say. Lol

If Sacramento was previously interested in Fournier... well, not anymore!

AncestryDNA kit during the holidays?

I am excited to see Fox playing. And.... Vince is back!!!!

Jajajaja! That could have been 3 players wearing the magic jersey on the dunk contest!!

Lol yea.. or you can just blow on his ear.

Correct. He is shooting 33% from 3 points tgis year yet he Can have days shooting 6/6 from 3’s . You cant just leave him along. You know who is shooting around 34% from 3 this year..? Mr Lebron James. Now, tell me if you are going to leave this guy shooting the 3 alone?

Sure. But for some weird reason He was making both Fournier’s and AG better. Heck, even Simmons was playing better. Maybe he was not the only reason or maybe it is purely coincidence, but he clearly played a big role on the magic early season wins. 9-11 record with him, 5-19 without him. He got into a slump mid november but he was playing with bad Hamstring. Somehow, he was allowed to continue playing with a bad hamstring which was affecting his biomechanics leading to the MCL tear and non-displaced fracture. ( the Hamstring and Quads are both big knee stabilizer). Sometimes I wonder about the magic medical staff. Look a the Spurs medical staff how cautious they are with Kawhi Quad injury. I am glad that they are taking it slow with Isaac.

Of course! But I think rather that this year pick, I will offer them fournier, Isaac and next year first round. The spurs were and likely, still are very high on Isaac.

Maybe. But he is playing a very erratic carmelo Anthony style of game. He is forcing too much and not be efficient at it. At the beginning of the season he was not forcing at all and was very efficient at both ends of the floor. I dont think Vuc or DJ had anything to do. It is more about Ross been out. Ross is and has been a very respectable shooter. More so than simmons. He was also great in team defense and will allow AG to relax a little. You can see AG playing tired at times as we currently striggling in team defense. Ross makes us better on both sides of the court. Playing Ross, Evan and vuc together allowed him to remain open. another issue he is facing Is that teams are adjusting to him now and he is getting defended better. We just dont have a good and experienced coaching staff that can help him get to the next level. It happended to Oladipo and now it is happening to AG. He has the talent and definetly will be a good all around player in the future. We just need to be patient and cant just let him leave. He will get paid either way.

The day I decide not to see the game....

The knicks and Charlotte are working on a deal centered in Kemba? According to reports. Not sure how accurate this is. I imagine they will have to send Ntilikina to Charlotte. Weird cause they just signed Burke.

He is clearly available. It should be interested to see what they do with Exum as well. He is also available and likely not getting too much attention. Hood/Exum will be good. I am not sure what will it take to get those two.

Another guy who is widely available and we are not talking about lately is Tyreke Evans. Yes, He is an expering contract but the guy might be available next year for cheap. Memphis is in dire need of a SG/SF combo. Maybe we can send Fournier there for the expiring contracts of Evans, Wright and Ennis and the option to switch the 2018 pick or their second round pick. Maybe we can work a multi year deal with Evans in the offseason(7-8 mill per year). We keep our picks and we will be getting rid off Fournier's salary. Not a blockbuster move but a viable scenario.

A Kemba trade will be ideal even with Batum included, as long as we keep this year pick and offer them next year, instead. I think the Batum and Isaac combo at SF will be amazing to have. I dont want Batum be a force in the offense. I want him to be great in defense and play a Danny Green role while Isaac develops. Batum can helps Isaac development. The trade should not affect who we select with our first round pick this year. I will still to go after Young, Doncic or Ayton. Young and Kemba can play together at times as a PG/SG combo. Doncic will be good as a SG next to Kemba and Ayton will be ideal to pair with Berch and Biz inthe middle.

I will trade next year

Yep. Look at Oladipo. I am first to admit that I judged him a year too soon. Even though I liked him, I though Fournier was a better option for us at the time. I, however, feel extremely comfortable to judge Vuc at the moment. He is at his peak and surely not what we need moving forward.

I dont know what to think of Payton. So confusing. Today’s Payton is really what we need and makes you think if we should be more patient with him.

Easy answer. Playing Vuc and not playing Berch.
