Brooks Back, To Play Light Minutes

Avery Johnson announced that MarShon Brooks will return to action on Friday vs. the Pistons, but won't play big minutes. According to Johnson, "It won't be heavy minutes." Brooks said he's excited about his return. Brooks has missed the last six games with the broken toe, which he suffered after returning from a three-game absence with a sore Achilles.

In other medical news, DeShawn Stevenson said he has undergone the "blood-spinning" treatment that Kobe Bryant and Gilbert Arenas have had. Bryant and Arenas had the treatment in Germany with the doctor who developed it. Stevenson was treated by an associate of the German doctor. Stevenson said that the treatment was "very expensive" $12,000 per knee. Nets paid for his right knee, he paid for his left.

The doctor probably factored in team record when selecting his clients.

I just hope they aren't rushing him back.

He wasn’t ready to play the last time.

Oh pissing blimey there's jam coming out of the walls!

I’m worried the lack of available bodies factored into the decision. Seems strange they wouldn’t take a one-game precaution that would have given Brooks four more days of rest.

Did jalen rose just say the nets will have the worst record in the nba I really hope that nbc sports network takes off

They are only going to give

Brooks limited minutes. If the injury is a broken toe, or Achilles he would know right away if he’s not ready. I hope it’s not the Achilles, although I know the team reported it’s a broken toe. Achilles is the type of injury players get when you have a strike shorten season. A lot of NFL player got the same injury this year.
