Everybody back?  Poor Chandler may have to stand at the end of the bench.  

Seriously though why can't this guy even get in a garbage game?

And take a chance that he gets injured again?  Then, he would be worthless to trade.  At least, right now he's worth a new pair of sneakers or two in a trade!

There is the term damaged goods and then there is another level of that and that would be Parsons. 25 million for next to zero minutes averages out pretty well per minute for him. Bill Gates territory right there.

He wasn't that good even before his knees stopped working.

Someone thought that he was.  That's why he has the big $$$ contract.

So much for thinking 2020 would bring different results in the injury department. SIGH!!!

Watson was the first gentleman named Paul since 2001 to lead Fresno State into the NCAA Tournament.

Who said help wasn't coming!

More Watson Wiki trivia: One of Watson's older fellow alums was the "great" Rob Babcock, the Raps GM who traded Vince to New Jersey. Don't nobody tell Vince until at least Contract Day #21.

I wish I had more info on his defense. In college he was known most for his defense. He added weight in the NBA. Is 225. Was 198 in college. He looks like a smaller Khris Middleton.

Some poster said Watson is just a warm body that got called up.  If so, after watching his hi lights, I've got to say, "What a body these Hawks have added to their roster!"

I know.  Players are never as good as their film.  Still, he seems to know.  And, so they report, he was drafted because of his defense, not his shooting.  Well, Atlanta will take that.

With two vets told that they are on permanent inactive, could it be that they are available?  Just asking...

That's 3.5%.  

Hopefully, they can all get and stay healthy going forward.

Like I said, I can't wait to see this team where everyone is healthy for three weeks.  (One week for the hurt guys to get back into the groove and then at least two weeks of how the team actually functions together).

 

[JayBirdHawk]

Closer and closer!
