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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

In light of Cisco's injury,

What is the depth chart at 3?

Mason
Noc
Casspi
Donte

?

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.

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.

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.

by cbsf on Oct 9, 2009 4:03 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

As far as ball handling, it’s true that Garcia has the skills to bring the ball up as a point guard, but that was never an ideal situation for the team. With the addition of Evans and Rodriguez, he shouldn’t have been asked to do that this season anyway. His turnover rate is equal to Nocioni’s.

With Garcia out, should Mason or Noc start?

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.

by andy sims on Oct 9, 2009 2:36 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

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.

by MustangMBS on Oct 9, 2009 2:42 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

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.

Nope

You got it right, his character was the opposite of unbreakable.

by MustangMBS on Oct 9, 2009 2:48 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

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
