Ed Being Shut Down?

[casualfan]

Richard Skinner is reporting there are rumblings that Ed may get shut down for the year.

Has anyone else heard this? I was under the impression his injury was all about pain management at this point.

We are fucked.

If this is true, our 35 year streak of being .500 or better in conference ends this season.

Ed looks like he's killing his shoulder every time out. I wouldn't blame him at all. Would just be the icing on the cake of this tragedy of a season. We can't catch a break

That would pretty much put an end to this season.Who would be backup point guard then?

JP? Or maybe Malcolm?

That's pretty thin. It is a mention of rumblings buried in the article. We should probably wait for something more substantial before panicking.

Yea I actually think there is a good chance this happens. He needs surgery and I know his eyes are on the NBA. We will have a tough time making the tourney if he shuts it down... that's for sure.

Not sure why you felt the need to change the thread title.

That's why i put a question mark in the thread title and asked in the OP if anyone had heard anything about it.

Anyway, as most know by now Skinny and Rick are pretty tight so I doubt he'd be tossing that out there without having some concrete info.

It's probably what's best for him if he's gonna try for the NBA. Definitely sucks for us though, but this season was never gonna be special.

If he gets shut down I would imagine he will be back next year.

I don't think he's shown nearly enough to be a first rounder, especially with the current crop of PGs coming out (Markelle Fultz, Dennis Smith, De'Aaron Fox, Lonzo Ball).

He's at best the 5th or 6th best point guard in this draft.

I was wondering if he'd be back even if he stayed healthy.
