Time for Rodney Hood to average about 16ppg and solidify himself as someone who should be starting full time.

I wonder that means as far as recovery and time out?

The procedure, which will include the insertion of a plate and screws on Tuesday in Salt Lake City, will allow Burks to begin weight-bearing activities quicker than simply letting the bone heal on its own. The surgery could expedite his return to the court.

It means that time out will easier to estimate once the surgery is complete, simply letting it heal could be faster recovery, but it could also be slower.

He already is the full time starter even when everyone is healthy

So what does this mean long-term for Alec? Is this plate something permanent? How will it affect his quickness and explosiveness?

How about stickying this, Mods, for updates?

Why shouldn't we tank? I mean... It's been working out so well for teams like Sacramento and Philly. Where is Philly in the standings again?

It's going to work pretty ****in well for LA Lakers.
