Markus injury

Postby Junior » Sun Feb 15, 2015 12:40 am

What's the word? Cramp or calf strain? He looked like he was in a lot of pain.

Looked like a typical cramp from my point of view. My friend was the student trainer tending to him and he was just keeping Markus hydrated with electrolytes

I saw him cramping up about ten minutes earlier, but the way he went down made me think calf strain. Those can make you think you got shot. Drop immediately. Hopefully, it was just a cramp. A calf will keep you out.

Larry Brown said after the game that it was cramps and that Kennedy will be fine.

Looked to me like the dreaded double: calf goes only to be followed by the quad. That friggin hurts. Alot.

Larry doesn't like to mess with the lineup and we are a better team with MK coming off of the bench.

Yes, that's what they keep saying but Markus should be starting, end of story.

Actually I think its bc of his big men rotation. He likes to double sub and the way it is we always have a potent post presence on the court.

We start ever game slow. Can't afford to do that Thursday as we will be playing our toughest opponent outside of Gonzaga.

we have the luxury this year of that double big man substitution and I love the combo of Markus & Cannen coming off the bench. That's usually the point where our opponents realize they are in for a long night

I like the current rotation, in part because Markus doesn't seem to mind.

Opposing big guys have to run with Yanick, and then Markus comes in when their guy is tired? Win-win.
