What's the Status on Burks?

We need to bring him back for two reasons... 1- He's good at basketball and we need more good players 2- I'm not saying we have to trade him, but he's not a trade chip other teams will value nearly as much if he doesn't come back and play. 5-10 healthy games out of the guy could give us more options to build the roster.

Or he gets injured again and he has no value.
 
I've got a friend who's friends with greg Miller. Apparently Alec has been healthy for a while. The team doctor apparently doesn't want to play players until they are 100% in "game shape"
I for one think that's stupid and strange. Seems like if he could play 5 minutes that could help.

Do you know if your friend and Mr. Miller have meetings at the local Best Buy. Please advise.
 
Locke gave an update today. He said Burks is fully healed but the FO is taking extra precautions because they don't want him to come out too early and get another injury because his body isn't completely ready. He also said he expects Burks will be back before the end of the season. Last night Booner said he thought it could be any day.

So why not play him restricted minutes?

Limited minutes could help that along it seems.

Depends... There is some value in making sure they are close to full strength. When you are injured you compensate for things that aren't quite right. I do think we've taken it a bit far here. If he's running and pain free and structurally it is sound... Give him a few days to get his lungs back but then put the guy out there.
