Thibodeau said Robinson is progressing after surgery, but he’s not doing any on-court work. That is the next progression. There is no timetable, so a possible return for him this season remains uncertain.“We don’t want to take any chances with it, so we’re going to be very patient and make sure he’s completely healthy before we get him going again,” Thibodeau said.
Bad news. Might be why they signed Pelle. Knowing this early on, after Mitch got hurt. In a tough, seven game series, Pelle might play more than expected, so Noel isnt relied on too much.
We've seen Thibs changing his approach to coaching this season. D. Rose spoke about more freedom to create. Not the only way.
The playoffs are a different animal. We'll see if Thibs learned from what hasnt worked in the past. Would be great if Obi played well enough to keep Randle's minutes in the playoffs from becoming too taxing. The addition of Luca might make that more doable.
We've discussed Obi benefiting from a floor general, in their prime. Luca might be that PG. At least for the near term.
