A fairly simple shoulder dislocation without major nerve or tissue damage likely will improve over a few weeks. Having full range of motion without pain and regained strength are necessary before returning to regular activities. Resuming activity too soon after shoulder dislocation may cause re-injury of the shoulder joint. I don't think it will be that fast. Best case scenario is probably after the All Star break. In terms of replacements, I like the idea of DeRozan because I think it might be able to get Lowry as well if he agrees to a buyout. Not sure how it effects Deuce but a playoff lineup of Brunson/ Lowry would be vicious. |

I get worried with calls for Derozan and Lowry. I’ll take Lowry first. 1) Lowry would take minutes from McBride. Small sample set, but McBride is a lock down defender that is shooting 47% from 3 on catch and shoots. A .62% TS%. Athletic but undersized, he was my top draft choice with the 19 pick even though we got him in the 30s. We haven’t seen the strength of his game yet - he is best in the mid range as a spot up shooter. In games he rushes his shot a bit, but if there is a candidate for the “game slowing down” and a young player that will benefit from playoff experience. I don’t know how far we go in the playoff this year. But this team will be together for 2-3 more years as presently constructed. Let’s take our shot with this guy. I think he will earn out. He has grit. So, no to Lowry. 2) Derozan is a good dude. If he was on my team, it would be hard to trade him. But I would. Classic high volume low efficiency shooter. We think of him as clutch but at his age, as the top player on bad teams. I can see why you would want him, but he doesn’t really fit the mold. I don’t know that he results in more wins this year, but I am pretty sure a trade for him results less wins after this year. Let’s see how the Knicks adjust tonight vs the Hornets. They have like 3 starting caliber PFs, but I think Precious will lock it down. You know I gonna spin wit it

Issue for me with DeRozan is not his efficiency, defense or any other over exaggerated deficiency. I am still on the get a backup PF and spark off the bench narrative.

Did you read the tweet responses in tweet? Are you saying Randle haters are not secretly happy to see what the Knicks would look like without their favorite scapegoat out of the rotation? If so, I question your judgement and naive outlook of what goes through the minds of hateful fans. Oh but agree, "he should have pulled up". Sarcasm.

![]() I would say that doctor estimates are just rough guidelines. A lot depends on Julius's pain tolerance and whether they're any swelling. Usually they minimally wait 'til swelling has subsided before letting a player back on the court.
The doctors can say is whether the joint is unstable and that give an opinion on risk of reinjury. Even in those cases, that doesn't stop players from giving it a go - they wear wraps/braces/tape and hope to get surgery when the season is over. “That was two, two from the heart.” - John Starks

Randle is a beast with an enormous pain threshold. Regardless, it would be criminally negligent to have him play before All Star break. Let him heal up fully and be ready for the stretch run and playoffs! |

![]() First game back from all star would be Feb 22. That's close to 4 weeks, but I'd be totally happy if he was back mid-March and had the opportunity to play 10-15 games before the playoffs started.

![]() Not going to get too far ahead but those are warm winds blowing. I would have been happy if he were ready by the playoffs. Perhaps there will be some silver linings here - minutes for players like Precious or perhaps Jacob T, Randle’s legs getting a break from the long season, and maybe even JuJu finding a warmer spot in the hearts of the dislikers.
