That’s news to me,” Brown said of Hart’s issues. “[VP of Sports Medicine] Casey [Smith] has handled as best he can, and Josh has, too

they really have separated the coaching staff from player medical information…

Well it’s at least pretty clear that Brown is going to keep Yabu on a short leash. He becomes trade-eligible in December, not that anyone would want him.

His stock has dropped pretty far pretty fast. I wouldn’t give up on him being able to be productive on offense, but I think what we really need is a plus defender that can shoot a little and be reasonably efficient. We got Clarkson to score. Let him do his thing, but we need some more defense in that second unit and to come in once in awhile with the starters.

If Yabu weren’t playing so poorly I’d feel pretty good about the lineup. 10 guys tonight, each of them earning their time. Except Yabu.

No excuse not to reel off another 4 wins.

I see we took 47 threes, that’s too many for my liking, and I think that a couple of those in the last 5 minutes were unnecessary, but at least they were going in.

The little victories…Mitch playing 2 games in a row, Hart looking better.

Less good: We are very thin at the backup big spot. Huk and Yabu have both been bad, so we need to fix that, hopefully by one or both of them being, well, less bad.
