Mullins out 6 weeks with ankle injury

[Palatine]

The “ he’s a quick healer” is for the most part bogus, not just for Braylon but for anyone.
What it usually means is that someone has a higher pain tolerance than most, not that they heal quicker.

You obviously never heard of Adrian Peterson.

'Adrian Peterson Effect' leaves doctors in awe and players rushing to return

Adrian Peterson's amazing return from ACL surgery has other athletes thinking they can make equally swift comebacks.

Not sure where to put this, probably not worth it's own thread since it's behind a paywall. But a nice read on Furhpy

I never took a "bench" to be a purely linear lineup of guys ranked 6-15 in order.

These are either primary rotation guys

If Mullins were not hurt and he was a starter the bench is and apologies for not naming the euro players....

Demary / Ball / Mullins / Karaban / Reed

PG: Smith, Millender, Euro
SG: Furphy
Wing: Stewart, Ross, Ross
PF: Koroma
C: Reibe, Euro

Also consider lineups can be 3 frontcourt or 3 backcourt depending on many factors and some players like Furphy can likely play a 2 or 3 same as Mullins, what the injury to Mullins does, and say it shifts to Stewart to start in a 3 (presumably) frontcourt, 2 backcourt lineup...

Demary / Ball / Stewart / Karaban / Reed (likely)
Demary / Ball / Smith / Karanan / Reed (would not be surprised to see)

PG: Smith, Millender, Euro
SG: Furphy
Wing: Ross, Ross
PF: Koroma
C: Reibe, Euro

If Solo needs a break it could either be Furphy to replace him or Smith so I am guessing Furphy goes from 1-5 min to 7-11 minutes.
