Tired and Injured

[hands11]

wow people.

Dixon back, Jamison out.

This is getting really tough.

So we should have Etan back next game from his tummy ache.
Jefferies shouldnt be far behind.

Hughes should be getting his legs back with in a few games.

So basically,we should have everyone except Hayes.

I dont think Jamison is really that hurt. I think it was a mental breakdown and exhaustion. Maybe he got hit in the nuts or something. Thats why they wouldnt tell us what it was.

I think he was just feeling winded, as he headed to the lockerroom he just felt a little sick. Im sure he'll be alright. Hang in there Wiz kids, not too many games to go.

God, I hope your right about Jamison, maybe he started :puke: due to getting the flu from Etan...:fingersx:

As far as Hughes getting his legs back it doesn't look to me that he ever lost them....he didn't shoot well from the field tonight but he played great D and did other things that helped us including close to 10 rebounds and at least 3 steals...

Arenas looks like the time he spent being our main offensive threat has tired him.

Well, rebounds are about possition a lot of the time.

The tired legs would affect his shooting. He also seemed to be tripping over his feet more then once. I would call that tired legs.

Hey, he sat out a long time. Just because he was pumped up the first game doesnt mean he is ready to do it night in and night out. Specially on back to backs. That going to take 10-15 games to get back into that kind of shape. But he should be fresh for the run. He got some rest other didnt.

Ok, Ive gone for the a big high to a litle worried.

Jamison has a sore knee but we dont know what it is yet. This is a big question mark. It was to sore to return to play. Thats not good. Is it tendinitus or something structural ? Sounds like he is going to have to sit some or play at less then 90%.

Trend in health: down

Gil has a sore knee also. Thats no good.
Trend in health: down

Hayes: out 4-6 weeks.

Hughes: Returned fractured finger 3 games. He should be getting stronger over the following games.
Trend in health: Up

Dixon: Returned from sprained ankle. 1 game back
Trend in health: Up

Kwame: Out most the year. 6 games back
Trend in health: Up

Blake: Out most the year. 18 games back
Trend in health: Up

Etan:Out most the year. Now has the flu
Trend in health: Up

Haywood: Still looks strong. No injury.

Ruffin: Still looks strong. No injury.

Jefferies: Bruised Knee. Hey, it a bruise. Those go away. He shouldnt have much lingering effect.
Trend in health: Up

So in the short term, we have some challanges. Gil is my biggest worry. But having Gil and Jamison banged up at the same time, thats tough.

Getting Jefferies back would be the most stabilizing. We need SFs. Jamison can sit. Jefferies can grab his rebounds. Kwame and Haywood can do his scoring. Profit can play Hayes's minutes, or you put in Blake and run Gil at SG and Hughes at SF. He needs his legs to do this.

We play 1 game in the next 7 days. Very good timing for a small break. Im hoping for the best. I hope this is enough rest to at least get Gil back to 95% healthy.

The big news will be what is wrong with Atawan and Gil's knees....everything else is minor compared to what is going on with them right now. :whoknows:

True, those are the big ones. But if we have everything else, then we only really really need Gil.

A healthy Gil and a fresh legged Hughes can do a lot of damage with a productive Haywood, and Kwame who is getting on a roll.
Jefferies defending the SF. Dixon as a spark off the bench.

Having these other players means a lot. Gil and Hughes are the 2 biggest stars. Its most important we have those 2 healthy.

Kwame can get Jamisons rebounds.
Jefferies can pick up the lack there also.
Kwame and Haywood will just have to pick up thier scoring.

This would be great timing for Kwame who wants to break out anyway. Dixon can put up some points also.

We have lots of weapons. I dont like not having Hayes and Jamison out so close together. Not enough time to adjust, but Jamison sounds like he will play, even if for less minutes. Just having him out there is stabilizing. As long as he is healthy enought to shot from the outside, thats good.

There is nothing wrong with Arenas's knee...he had a bruised shin...nothing to do with his knee

I read it was a knee. I pretty sure it was in the WP. Maybe more then once. They were saying thats why his shot was off.

No lift.
