Tuesday night edition of the pod midweek here. I'm going to talk about a really fascinating game in Milwaukee as they outlasted the Cleveland Cavaliers. Also,

0:08.4

ton of news that's built up that we got to get to and we'll do a few random questions as well. I haven't done that in a while. Those are always fun to kind of break it up a little bit. And a few notes on Washington, New Orleans and

0:21.2

second, I feel like not too much because we're in danger of running short on all these. So we're really potentially going to run out of material.

0:31.4

Why don't we hit some news first here, Mr. Luru? What we got.

0:35.5

I think we could start with the so it was always going to be a two week evaluation period for Curry. And the revaluation happened. It was announced on Tuesday that Curry will not play for another week,

0:48.0

which means he's out for the Christmas day game against the Cav. So both teams will be without their ostensible starting point cards.

0:54.7

Yeah, Isaiah Thomas targeting early January for his return. And that's a shame, but it might make the game more interesting. It'll be in Golden State as it was two years ago.

1:05.9

We may be at that game. We may do the tour and be sure I haven't decided yet. Depends on whether we actually get seats or not that might be part of it. But takes a little bit of a

1:14.1

bluster off of that game. But it has at least made Golden State more interesting to me trying to see them cope without Curry. In other Golden State news,

1:23.1

Jremon Green has and Zazepadjuli both been upgraded to questionable for their tilt tomorrow night against Memphis. And Green has been struggling with us.

1:33.3

He played in his homecoming game in Detroit after missing a game in Charlotte, but then has missed the last few now. And Steve Kerr said, you know,

1:41.6

it's just, yeah, okay, if it were the playoffs, he could be playing, but we're trying to rest him and get it right. But it has been a little bit of an

1:47.2

inscrutable injury and Petrullio, you'll recall, returned as well against Charlotte. And then he's missed the last few, but because of the

1:55.6

preposterous depth on this team, they really have not missed a beat. And they've continued to defend wallet and Kevin Durant has proved, I think, again, that he is still in the regular season.

2:06.1

The same type of MVP MVP caliber player that he was before. And in terms of just carrying a team that doesn't have a bunch of other great offensive players on it.

2:15.8

Also, what else we got here? Well, I think we should go to the jazz. I mean, because because we haven't talked about Rudy Go Bears injury since it happened.

2:23.9

Derek favors fell into him. It did not look. It didn't look terrible to me, but it did definitely did not look good. And it is a PCL and bone bruise for Go Bear.

2:32.9

He's going to be out. I the last thing I remember hearing was about a month, but it could be obviously with something like that.

2:38.8

It could be more. And then favors is out on top of that.

2:41.8

Yeah, for Go Bear, the PCL, if you don't know, more rarely injured ligaments. That's actually towards the back of the knee.

2:49.8

It keeps your knee from hyper extending. And the ubiquitous bone bruises, all we know that those are difficult to deal with and favors

2:57.9

miss Mondays game against the rockets where the jazz actually put up a value and effort. And then we're just absolutely delused by Houston three pointers in the fourth quarter of that game.
