When I first read that name it took me a minute to realize who you were referring to because I had only ever heard him mentioned as "speedy." Since we're mentioning injuries, does anyone else think its ridiculous that Laker's backup Greg Foster has been out for weeks because Shaq stepped on his foot. ------------------
Heh. I know him by that name because he seems to be awesome in my NBA Live 2001? Also, apparently Lynch said he should be able to play by Game 3. ------------------
Will Craig Claxton, backup rookie point guard for the Philadelphia 76ers, be ready for the championship series between the 76ers and Los Angeles Lakers? Claxton, injured in the pre-season, was drafted to add quickness alongside Allen Iverson in the backcourt. The 76ers were delighted at the prospect of having Claxton and Iverson in the game at the same time because they would be faster than their opponents. How long is Claxton expected to be out? ------------------
And here I was thinking his given name was "Speedy." No, the Sixers did not keep him on their playoff roster, so even if healthy he would not be eligible to play. The good news is that they do expect Geiger and Lynch to play in the series. Not that they have a chance to win more than a game anyway. ------------------ Bingbong was set up, led to an untimely death in the prime of his life for no other reason than pure malice. Things like that do not go unavenged. Sometimes it spills out onto the field of play.
