Completely different injuries. Lets not get rash here. OG is a freak athlete and likely to recover just as fast as most. Id say a month.

Yea, RJ was not the same the rest of the year.

Daaaaang and I forgot RJ had surgery after the season too on that ankle.  Pretty much held him out for the majority of the offseason.

Cuss words.  Let's hope it's not as serious.

Idk about you guys but I'm really high Deron Davis, he's a straight beast down low.

He is a beast but Bryants the original beast.

Yes he also seems to have that special talent of coming through in the clutch. Big free throws against kansas and put the ball on the floor and got to the basket last night when we needed a big basket.

More minutes for DeRon. This is okay. We need others to stay healthy.

He really is further along than I expected especially considering the time off. He really plays smart on both ends. He looks very promising, imo.

DeRon was so, so good last night. He reminds me more than a bit of the guy he was playing against, Kennedy Meeks.

Re-watching the game...can someone explain to me why Newkirk took the most shots?

We wasn't game planned for. Was open the most.

Great game last night, what a victory!  Hope OG can heal quickly enough to be back for the B1G season.

Played the most minutes?

He did, but typically, you do not want your PG taking the most shots (I do think that Yogi was an exception).  Plus I think that we have better shooters than Newkirk.

He took what they have him. No issue with it. If at the end of the season he's taken the most I'll be upset.

You are right...if that is the case come the end of the season, then somehting went wrong.

Newkirk has to continue to take those shots. If he stops taking the wide open threes he becomes a taller version of TumTum at MSU where you don't need to guard him in the perimeter and can help off him. If Newkirk can consistently hit the outside shot that takes this team to another level.

Agreed.  He seemed to get in trouble when trying to drive into the lane.

One of my keys to a great, successful season was to stay healthy. So far, are damn near failing that. First, a quick injury to Blackmon and now OG is out a game or more..

If we want to win, we need to stay healthy. We seem to always have bad luck with injuries. Is it time we start taking a look into better training and injury prevention for the team? 

[Scooter D 928]

Just finished the re-watch...a little disappointed that RoJo disappeared in the 2nd half after his blistering start.  The only thing worse that IU FT shooting was UNC FT shooting.  

DD played some great minutes...great team D in the first half.  Overall, really limited a good offensive team.  I think that the team really misses CH.

I feel better abount the win then I did last night.  That IPFW loss still has my excitment contained.  They need to beat Butler and Louisville for me to really believe in this team again.

I feel like this team would be that much better with CH.

This team is loaded so it can withstand injuries. That being said I expect of back within three weeks as good as ever.
