Gobert update thread

Really doubt Rudy returns this series, at least in good form.

Bone bruises are really debilitating. I remember Eric Gordon missed 26 games with a bruised knee once. I just worry he'll be useless if he tries to come back for Game 3 or 4.

Hood missed 12 days. It's the playoffs. It's really that simple.

Rudy was shooting shots and lifting off his knee. Very good signs. He'll miss game 2 but I wouldn't completely rule out a return in Game 3 or 4.

Thank you Geebus!!

He comes back this series. He has tigers blood in his veins.

Wtf? Does he have that shot? He'd be an MVP if he could do that in games. Every time he's ever pulled up I feel likes it's been an air ball. But those midrange shots look pretty decent to me.

Summer project Rudy!

After seeing that video, I think the earliest he will come back will be game 5.

I'm guessing Gobert comes back for Game 5.

And for hell sake, destroy all of those stupid bobble head dolls of our players; I'm sure someone is using them for pincushions.

I'll admit, that cracked me up.

Maybe I'm way off here but definitely looked ginger and to be favoring the leg a little in that video.

If that's the case, he has to be weeks away. Maybe months even. Hell, Joel Embiid had been looking insane in workouts for months before they ever let him step on a court and Rudy doesn't look remotely close to that healthy.

Salt Lake Tribune is reporting that Rudy will be out for game 2.

No surprise here. Let's hope he can get back on the court when we return to Salt Lake.

This is encouraging:

[At halftime] he was already out of his uniform and in street clothes by that time. He had a wrap and a bag of ice on his knee. But he wasn't walking with crutches, and he didn't have a brace.

"It was a great sign for us that he didn't need crutches," Jazz shooting guard Rodney Hood said. "He was walking. He was limping a little bit. It meant a lot that he greeted us."

Holy crap, y'all. That's some encouragement right there.

Embiid was dealing with a meniscus tear. Not remotely comparable, IMO.
