Brook Lopez out 6-8 weeks.

it's a stress fracture, that's not good. It's better if it's a fracture fracture, that you stepped wrong and SNAP. A stress fracture means it's weight bearing. Who knows though, sometimes the initial news is people rushing to report.

It should only be 2 months ish at most i think. Thats from people I knew who had similar fractures though.

[Lakers_Kobe_Fan]

He won't get as killed if he trades for Bynum right now + Gasol.

lol keep dreaming that he will get both Bynum + Gasol...

specially after this news

Were they the size of a small house? It's not positive. I will give the nets fans a positive thought though. Who says the Magic have to trade Howard? If they don't (for some reason), he's yours. No doubt.

its upto 2-3 months....and its the same as the mavs guard had last season Rodrigue Beaubois

hope he comes back healthy. He has to take his time....this is not a sprained wrist or ankle....this injury is caused by strain of his weight...

[D12"Magic"]

Thanks man. Terrible new for Nets fans.

Im no Medical Doctor but based off those injuries could be during that time.

[WeGetRing2012]

Lakers should just shift their focus to Deron Wiliams. Trade away Gasol to free up cap space and then sign deron in the summer because he's def gonna leave.

Magic are still most likely waiting for the deadline

This, also Netsfan did you hear about Otis thinking about letting Howard walk and try to pursue Lopez during the FA?
Don't know why he would think that.

It is probably gonna be Bynum + filler for Dwight and Hedo. I just hope we can keep Ebanks out of the trade.

It is gonna be hard letting go of Bynum but a Gasol/D12 frontcourt is gonna be crazy.

I don't believe that. Wouldn't he rather have lopez for 5 Years with 5 picks?

[D12"Magic"]

Yea, I have a hard time believing that also, would be idiotic.

Also, heres this.

Lopez likely will miss 4-6 weeks, which still gives the #Nets time to trade him to Orlando if they wait until March to move Dwight.

Here's what's going to happen.....Brook is going to make a miraculous recovery and be on the court by next week, shocking all the doctors........Trade talks will resume with the Magic and the big Howard trade will take place in 2 weeks.


Meanwhile, Robin will be mysteriously absent from Phoenix indefinitely with "flu like symptons."

Doubt it. A stress fracture that does not require surgery is normally around 6 weeks, I had one (I am 6'1 175lb) and took me 7 weeks to heal. The guys is huge and his fracture is much worse so I can see him missing 3 months. I hope I am wrong though but stress fractures are bitches, you play on them and may end up getting a chronical one.

I can't remember how long Gasol missed 3-4 years ago when he had a similar one, that would be a good indicator.

We should use that TPE on Jameer and at least get back a PG that isn't old. Hedo's contract is too big.

Bynum for Howard and Jameer

Nelson / Kobe / Barnes or Artest / Gasol / Howard

The Nets believe Brook Lopez can return from foot surgery by early February, league sources tell Y! Sports. Trade deadline is March 15th.
