Hamilton hasn't really been injury prone in his career. It's only been the past couple of years really. And the last 2 years in Detroit, I feel like he missed more games then he should have simply because he didn't want to play for THAT team as much.
Its not Hamiltons fault......he's had a great career.
Injurys happen to players like Hamilton who has played so many years, so many playoff games and wear and tear on his body........Now age is catching up to him and it shows....
I'm suprised that anyone expecting or depending on Rip to be our starter every night.....I thought he was brought here to be a veteran leader on the bench to give us a few minutes here and there...........Its naive for anyone to expect him to be 2005 Rip...Ill give it to him though, when he's up to it and feeling weel, he has had some great games for us....
Like I been saying, Rip is a temporary solution for 1 season or so to some of our scoring problems and nothing more............
We will need a new guy sometime and I know who he is......JR S****.......
Rip can come off the bench for him..........that's a great rotation with Brewer there to fill in defensive rolls and extra spark off the bench..
