Anyone notice Caleb Grill's back?

Grill being out just hurts, as we lose a solid source of offense, defense and rebounding.

Missing Jaz is hurting too. They needed some help down low today, on both sides of the court.

Jazz would have helped. The problem today without Grill is we basically only have 2 three point threats out there. It bogged everything down since OSU could just say into the paint. That took away Osun and King inside. Jazz helps with that even without Grill.

I wonder if they hit threes like that with Grill playing.

I’d say one three point threat with grill out. Holmes doesn’t shoot enough to be considered a threat imo.

Most of them were guarded and from guys you’d want to take them, but he has been solid at help and recover

His help defense is second to none on the team. He also gets in the passing lanes really well and disrupts cross court passes as good as anyone.

load him up on muscle relaxers, this is no time to rest

Obviously I wanted them to win that game.

But fighting as hard as they are down Grill, Kunc, and Williams is impressive.

This season is turning into a war of attrition.

Grill running on one burner is still a hot grill. He's our team MVP his toughbess is huge, and missed today big time. I'm in the let him sit a couple games if needed to heal up.

is the back injury in any way related to his haircut?

It would be easy to argue Grill is the heart of the team. But you could argue that for multiple guys. We are the classic case where the total is much greater than the sum
Of the individual pieces. Grill is constant energy, a defensive pest, major REBOUNDER, and occasional scorer. We did miss him today. He just needs to get better.
Is back spasms an official diagnosis or message board conjecture? I am worried that might be an inaccurate assessment.
