Well ain't that a hum dinger...
Sucks big time, I loved having two backup wings that were young and could make the three.

Surgery next week to insert a pin, according to Jeff McD:

now 11 minutes makes sense
You know I was kidding earlier, but Alan Anderson might actually deserve a look after a few seasons overseas. Worked for Neal, and he does have some similarities to James. Wouldn't require a trade at any rate.
. That sucks. He was playing well so far.
What would it take to get a guy like Young? Can we just swallow his 890k salary (2010 season)?
Personally, I'd like the Spurs to give Neal and Gee the first shot at replacing JA's minutes. Sure, it will make the Spurs even smaller on the perimeter but they should be able to survive. Ginobili has defended a lot of small forwards over the years. And honestly, at this stage of Ginobili's career, he's a better post defender than he is at chasing quick guards out on the perimeter. Ginobili ain't gonna let no one bully him.
The only way I'd want to trade for a small forward would be if the Spurs fear JA may be out for the season. Same goes for signing a free agent. Knowing the Spurs, I'm sure their thinking about Jarvis Hayes and, even worse, Michael Finley to get a SF with size who can shoot.
May also be the reason they dumped Temple--looking for another SF
I'm not understanding how this could be that serious. I've broken them on both of my feet, and it didn't make a bit of difference with shoes. Both of my pinkie toes are sort of floppy now, but you don't actually need your little toes to do anything...This is weird.
Well Hill better get his act together now, we need someone other than Neal to make up for JA's shooting.
THC to the rescue!@malikinitaly @Project_Kap lol I'm doing well bro. About to give my protege Alonzo Gee a speech! lol
Sorry but that made me forget everything else in your post.
God no...
you too
Important to note the timetable is eight weeks AFTER the surgery. The swelling has to subside before surgery. A source told me the All-Star Break is a likelier return goal than eight weeks.
MannyisGod just got serious wood at the thought of Finley returning.
So does anyone know of NBA case histories for injuries like this? How long does it usually take to heal properly?
Um, what? You must have missed my posts over the past 2 years.
Just right to the junction . . .
clearly, this is James Anderson's fault for being a selfish bas with no regard for his employer. We're paying you hundreds of thousands here James, you have no right to injury.
It's because that portion of the foot has such poor blood supply that using a timeline like 8 weeks is best. He could be a fast healer and be doing therapy in 6 weeks. Since he's getting the pin put in, that's to stabilize and keep the bone in a place the physician finds structurally needed and comfortable for the athlete. If this was his hand, he could pull a Stephon Marbury and play with a pin in hand, but since it's his foot, no can do.
Let's say the range is from 6-12 weeks. The most important thing is that he be healthy when the Spurs need him most. That and that the other guys continue to perform well even though the depth Anderson provided isn't there AND that they don't suffer because of it.
Even though he is a rookie that was only averaging about 15mpg or so I think this is a huge blow to the team. Anderson and Neal were the only outside threats on this team other than Manu and RJ now....very bad news. ..
i imagine that the swelling is expected to be where it needs to be as they have already scheduled the surgery for next week.
but yes, technically, it will be 8 weeks from after surgery that he would be looking at targeting.
that SUCKS. am really high on James.
Beaubois has had the same injury on August 8th and he is still out.
Webster missed a full year with that injury.
