Ed Davis Injury

I just got back from the gym and ran into a friend who is an ortho, and he said it will be a miracle if Davis is back in 4 weeks. He said it will probably 6-8 weeks realistically until he sees the floor again.
 
Wow, that's harsh! I felt like Davis was really starting to look comfortable out there in his new surroundings.

My first thought was a trade proposal to get Favors back as he is underutilized in New Orleans and they are really strong at that position already with Okafor and Hayes. Unfortunately his contract really prohibits it at this juncture. Truth is, I really don't think that Bradley will hurt us, and it's the opportunity he needs and deserves. If it doesn't work out, I like the idea of Faried or maybe a deal involving Oni or Williams Goss and maybe a second rounder for Cheick Diallo.
 
Well here’s Bradley’s chance , we will figure out what we have , or if a move needs to be made before a playoff run ..

I haven’t been impressed with Ed’s defence ...

You could trade Dante, Ed, and TB for him.
 
Its got to be Bradley and the dude deserves a shot, he's worked hard, never bitch publicly about his role or lack of it. lets see what the kid can do.
 
I'm excited to see what Tony can do. He dominates against 3rd string centers, but how often are you really going to play against them? I'm eating cereal and just thought of Trevor Booker. This team needs a tough SOB like him even though he's not very good lol.

It's not his contract that stops it. The CBA prohibits re-acquiring a player you have traded away in the same season.

Also, Favors isn't underutilized, but he is injured.

Yeah? Tell me the last time you saw them run a play for him? He's so good in the pick and roll and yet....particularly when Zion is healthy...he's just a garbage man over there. At least that's the way it was in the two games I watched. Anyway Okafor is killing it in his absence, dude is really ready to play this year, and don't forget Jaxson Hayes....they don't really need Faves. I predict they will trade him or let him walk, rather than renegotiate. I guess that's our only shot then is free agency.
 
I had doubts about this roster conglomeration from the start. And have doubted Bradley since before the jazz selected him.

Hope the jazz are greater than my skepticism. Go Tony. Go Jazz.
 
Anyone seen a clip of Ed getting hurt?

Listening to the game they didn't mention anything significant. They only said Davis was not on the bench and Bradley might play.

I don't think Pelicans will waive Favors but if they did....

The rules say you can't acquire a player in the same season.

An NBA season starts July 1.

Favors was traded June 30.

From the NBA CBA FAQ:

A team cannot reacquire a player it traded away during the same season (a season for this purpose being defined as starting on the first day of the regular season and ending on the last day of the Finals). If the player was traded between seasons (i.e., from the first day after the Finals to the last day prior to the start of the next regular season), it cannot reacquire the player prior to the end of the next season.

Bradley will be an upgrade offensively but will be a downgrade in defense and rebounding.

I don't think we have a big enough sample size to say what Bradley will or won't be.
