I still wonder if the MRI's been done yet or not. I never trusted my doctor that I had just an ankle sprain, from a game of bball - bc the pain was legit and the iinjury lingered. I could feel the injury when I stood up 30-40 minutes at a time, up to a year and half later. But maybe I'm just Jason Terry-soft.
Anyway, I don't expect Booz back for a week and a half probably. I think it depends on what level sprain as well, how stable the ankle is going to be right away. Then when he gets back he could probably do everything, depending on how much he trusts his body. Only reason I even care to talk about it, is that it looked much worse than Taj's ankle injury for instance earlier this season, even though he was writhing around in pain when his happened.
When Booz returns though, I hope he gets back to his offensive game. He only scored 20+ twice in the last 16 games. Averaging 15 a game, on 47% shooting or so. Obviously his rebounds would take a hit with Noah back, but it feels like they were going to him more earlier in the season and letting him work one-on-one. Lately, most of his points just seem to come from putbacks and feeds near the basket. I'd like to see the Bulls take some pressure off Rose, and start feeding Boozer again on offense. He had a nice string of 25-30 point games at the start of the season. Now, we're not sure if that 2nd scoring threat is coming from Deng, Boozer, or even Korver on any given night.
Huh? Doesn't Boozer have like 5% body fat (according to himself)?
