Report: Rudy Gay OUT for the Season. Siiiigh.

Here is the initial report on Rudy Gay missing the remainder of the season needing shoulder surgery.

Our friend Tom Ziller sums... "But missing Gay severely restricts Memphis' hopes of moving up in the West bracket, or of challenging the mighty San Antonio Spurs, the likely first-round opponent."

And there is our playoff profile.

I'm working on more, but wanted to get the thoughts of other Grizzlies fans on this dreary Tuesday morning.

Yeah.

We’re still set up nicely to make the playoffs, but making some noise is tough to imagine without Gay.

worse about this if we Hadn’t been playing decent basketball thus far. It hurts but realistically I think none of us truly believed that when Rudy came back we’d all the sudden be a contender for the West title. Sure it hurts us a little but we’re honestly not any worse off in the long run. Rudy, Lionel, and the team docs just need to make sure he’s able to play after this season and build on the momentum we have.

Great point!

I said the same thing in the piece I just posted. It’s not like we woke up and lost him this morning, not knowing what our team is and what their identity at this point it. We know who they are!
