[Charania] Boston’s Nikola Vucevic is expected to undergo a procedure on Saturday for his fractured ring finger and miss approximately one month, sources tell ESPN.
That was fast..?
Fingers are easy to diagnose. He got an xray and that takes <5 mins.
A month seems long but I could see him coming back early once it sets and he gets a brace on it with tape. Source: broken finger from college football
What kind of brace would that be though? Since it’s his right hand I would think that could affect his shot
Tape and some metal/hard plastic
Well better to have clarity quick get him ready for limited playoff minutes
I actually fractured my finger in high school and as I recall it literally took a month to heal and stuff. Felt like I didn’t even need a month tbh
I’ll chose to ignore this right now since JT is back on the screen
Honestly the drop off from vucevic to Garza is small if it exists to begin with
Garza better 😮💨
Gatza has been beyter thsn vuch. Maybe vucj has a better feiling but he doesn’t rebound
Vuc is literally one of the best rebounders in the NBA.
Vucevic walked so Tatum could run
Garza’s got this, deservedly so too
I fear we did a little Full Metal Alchemist to get Tatum back
Month isnt bad, garzas good
I prefer garza. He fits way better. Vuc hasnt shown me that he can Adapt.
When we acquired him someone commented how great it was to have a player who doesn’t get injured. I said something like “to counter this jinx I’m going to say I expect him to get seriously injured” and a mod deleted saying it “wasn’t appropriate to wish harm on a player”
So I blame the mod
The mod doesn’t know the different between wish and expect?

I was kidding around but I definitely felt a counter jinx was necessary. Obviously I wasn’t wishing for him to get hurt.
A bit of an overreaction but they’re probably trying to avoid a slippery slope.
Yeah makes sense. Anyways… Vuc will be back and will help with the title run. No worries
Garzilla was born ready
Could be worse I guess. He needed this time to get acclaimed though ugh
garzilla time
garza time babyyy
Boston Celtics try to be healthy challenge:
Hospital
Blows.
Slated to be back by the playoffs. Not the worst news.
A soul for a soul
Not worried about this. Garza was playing his best ball right before Vooch got picked up. He can pick up the slack for a month.
Sucks, but man Garza and Queta have been amazing.
Honestly would rather see Garza anyway
Is there a reason Baylor didn’t undergo a procedure? I think he should too, and then both of them can come back before the playoffs.
displaced fractures require surgery vs a small stable fracture that if managed well is just pain management
Damn homie
THIS IS WHY WE CAN’T HAVE NICE THINGS
Hope he has a speedy recovery and will be interested to see some more of Amari Williams now
Shitty news, but Garza has been better than we probably could’ve imagined and Vooch will be back by playoffs.
I know the trade was mostly about money and getting under the tax, but Simons was a very good player for us and we did give up a pretty good pick to complete the deal.
Hopefully Vooch can be ready for the playoffs, but I would have liked to see him get more integration time with the team
I… don’t think we’ll see him again.
I can’t wait for Brown to finally be put back in his place with tatum back.
