Tyreke now Martins' backup

More minutes for Omri & Donte at he 3?

More like
Beno’s Martin’s backup. ‘Reke and Martin are the starters, Beno backs Martin while ’Reke is on the floor, and Sergio backs ’Reke while Beno’s on the floor. Mason could pick up the extra minutes at SG, too.

Should have read “…Sergio backs ’Reke when Martin is on the floor.”

You're too smart for me
But I did manage to confuse the hell out of myself.

I agree with you
This definitely effects Beno & Sergio more than Donte at this point. I do think it means Mason is guaranteed to be picked up though.
No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....
But
It could also mean that Donte may get more minutes without Garcia in the lineup. I wonder who starts in Vegas vs the Lake Show.

Wasn’t it a fracture in his hand last year, too?

And surgery for a broken arm? That sounds bad. I’m hoping it’s just the normal 4-6 week recovery period. We needed that rangy defense and long-range shooting. CRAP.
I think
Fractures always need “hardware” to heal after the bones are fully grown, right? When you’re a kid they can just set it and put it in a cast, but grownups need plates/screws/pins.

forget about it...
not gonna be just 4-6 weeks. That is my “sports psychic” prediction. My heart goes out to the kid.
Looks like Omri and Donte
are gonna have to grow up real fast. Zohan for starter!

I seem to be at a loss for words
Never type 1 handed while you’re on the phone. This is depressing. My son snapped his forearm and got titanium plates….that was a 3 or 4 month recovery. Damn! Garcia was my favorite.
Dad?

Could we catch a break?
Just one… please?

At least it wasn't Martin or Reke?
And only our 3rd best scorer?

Maybe a whole Fanpost about how lucky we are that Martin and Reke are totally and completely healthy? Thanks.

Seems like Garcia just caught a break
if you take my meaning.
A little insight....
Depending on how bad the fracture is, it could be a really long recovery.
I snapped both bones in my left forearm 9 years ago (a basketball related injury, actually. Sort of). It took 2 plates and 15 screws to put it back together. The problem with a bad fracture in your forearm is that it really affects your hand dexterity and range of motion more generally. So, if Cisco has a bad fracture in his forearm of his shooting hand, it could be a while before his “shooting touch” is anywhere back to normal. Months, not weeks.

But let's wait until more details come out before we get too spooked, I guess

In light of Cisco's injury,
What is the depth chart at 3?
Mason
Noc
Casspi
Donte
?
Purveyor of Bull Plop
opposite...
I think Noc becomes your starting 3 and Mason becomes your 6th man off the bench spelling both Noc and Martin. Casspi/Donte still get short runs. I’m not buying the Casspi hype just yet.

That is a truly profound philosophical question

Indeed
and I was even sober when I thought of it. I may have to remedy that in light of this injury news.

From the Kings twitter
Kings President Of BBall Ops Geoff Petrie informed media @cisco32 will miss significant time. More info after his procedure tomorrow.
I hope Garcia gets back to 100% in not too long of a time.
I don’t see his absence affecting the Kings’ record much, however. I’m not sure there’s a big talent difference between Garcia and Nocioni.

I agree
Garcia brought a lot and I think was pretty underrated. Damn, here I am speaking in the past tense already…
Anyway, out of all the Kings players, IMHO, he has the best, speaking in present tense now as I am an optimist, all around game. He may not be the best at any one thing, but does all pretty well.
right, he is/was our do-it-all bench guy

If you compare their stat lines last season,
the two are almost identical. Nocioni is a better rebounder. Despite Garcia being a good three point shooter (especially last season) Nocioni shot a higher percentage last year and has a higher career average.
2 preseason games does not a season make...
I know, I know, but if Brockman can perform night in, night out as he has so far, that would free up Noc to start at 3, Mason could back up at both 2 and 3 and you still have Casspi and DG (if he’s not in Reno)

Broke his arm weightlifting?
Paging Jeff Kent’s doctor, STAT.
There’s more to this, healthy people don’t crack bones lifting. I’m actually hoping it was horseplay or some other asshattery, because if he actually broke his arm lifting weights, there may be a serious health issue in play.
Rocks are free, and slingshots easily stolen.
Could be
He has broken or fractured several fingers in the past couple of years.
I would be asking where the trainer was if he was lifting enough to get hurt. He should have had a spotter. I have lifted serious weight before, not recently, but it was only with a spotter.
Interesting take
Maybe he’s like Sam Jackson’s character in “Unbreakable”. I’ve only ever seen a few minutes of that movie though, so I actually could be completely wrong about the actor and character and am making absolutely no sense right now.

It's possible he dropped weights on his arm
somehow. It’s not clear that it broke in an actual lifting motion. Actually doesn’t say the injury had anything to do with weights at all. It just happened during the weight lifting session. He could have tripped and broke it as he fell.
Ball movement ... is like jogging for most people: They do it occasionally, and it makes them happy. Then they go back to not doing it. - Henry Abbott
