Cinco de Mayo

I don't like the timing on this one. We've won 11 of 13 (9 of 11 for the month), and now this happens right when we've gotten back into the thick of the playoff chase. I didn't even know he was having foot problems. Maybe this explains the shoddy rebounding numbers lately.

I hope Swift comes out like a house of fire the next five games. We're going to need him.

Ouch this really hurts, we are going to need the bench to pick it up and for someone be it Shane, Brian, Stro, or Lo to get established in the paint or we could be in for a long few games, until we get either Pau or Bonzi back, whichever comes first.

The good thing for Swift is that he gets to pick up the minutes and the majority of shots that came from plays run for Gasol. A good time for him to prove that he needs more minutes, as well as potentially increasing his contract at the end of the season when he is unrestricted.

Going to hurt our overall team rebounding with Gasol out, but we need everyone to hit the boards now. In turn, our ability to get easy shots will be reduced, so hopefully the team can keep it together and solidify until his return.
