She’s Back - Paige Available vs. St. John's [merged thread]

. . . With that said, I have to wonder what the news of Paige’s return will do for ticket sales at The XL Center for tomorrow’s game?

It will be interesting to see if the draw of Paige's return will overcome the anti-draw
of the intimidating weather. I'm guessing that most folks will stay home. :(

Is St. Johns here? If not, what are the chances of there even being a game? Ugh! Anyway I'm excited to be "turning the Paige" on this incredibly trying season!

There will be a game. It's a 2 1/2 hour bus ride. There's going to be hardly any snow along their route.

My understanding is that the snow will end early in the day in CT. So with a 7 pm start, why not head over to the XL Center for Paige’s return?

I hate to be a killjoy, and no I'm not a doctor and no I don't think that Geno or the med staff want PB to get reinjured but.......I really don't get it........she was favoring the leg a week ago, doesn't seem to be moving that comfortably the other day and now she's coming back with two games left in the regular season against St Johns when she's clearly not needed? My preference would be for her to continue to practice with the team at least until the first or second game of the Big East Tournament........:eek::oops:

You cant just start playing again and practice is not playing. She'll get several minutes in, get back her rhythm, and take the bench. Probably more time in the BE tounament. If she wasnt ready, Geno wouldnt put her out there. Stop worrying and enjoy the show.

This is great news! She looked really good in that practice video two days ago, but never could have imagined this. Good idea to give her some limited minutes against some less than competitive teams before the post season. Welcome back Paige!

I disagree. I think you love being a killjoy.

could be, but if I'm a killjoy then what exactly are you? :):rolleyes:
 
I'll cross my fingers and hope for the best. PB is a tremendous talent and I'm glad she will be back on the court. I'm sure she would not be cleared to play if anyone with real knowledge of her physical well being (aka not the BY doctors) thought she was not physically ready.

I missed Bob Joyce's Coaches Show tonight so does anyone know if Geno knew about this news when he was on it? I am guessing that the show is pre-recorded, so maybe this breaking news wasn't discussed.

Geno and CD have a wealth of experience repatriating players back into the rotation. You can be sure they will won’t do anything that could put Paige in harm’s way.

I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous. This seems awfully quick for the injury she had. Wishing her the best obviously especially long-term which is the most important.

This is where I am. Just last week she was at practice with a huge brace on her knee and no one was allowed with 20 feet of her and now all of a sudden she's ready to run the floor with defenders up in her face????
She might be medically ready but that isn't close to being game ready. Yes, I am very very nervous about this.

Wow you don’t think much of doctors do you?

The doctor’s appointment was today so probably not
 
I also want to take a moment to celebrate the young women who hung in there, kept it together, and most importantly kept themselves in it. This season, with a level of disruption I've never seen before, could have turned out very differently. Huge credit to them and I am sure they are more than thrilled to have their teammate back. It immediately gives them a different energy in a very positive way.

Ok. Did the Doc get season tickets? :rolleyes:
