I am assuming he is not 100% because he was MIA tonight and not the one handling the ball in crunch time. Because you cannot tell me he is 100% while he is not starting and not with the ball in his hands. Cannot have it both ways.
Why was Geo rushed back?
- Thread starter bac2therac
- Start date
Geo is lost. His shots are not even close. Maybe he needs to be reinserted back into starting lineup

I don't get Geo's injury. He played w/o the thumb brace for a couple of games already. Perhaps Pike just moving him down the bench.
Harper just looks tired. Zero bounce in his game for several games now.
Just wondering if they're just spent after expending so much on defense.

I never thought he looked ready when he had the brace on and questioned bringing him back, especially since we were playing well without him. But when the brace came off, it seemed like that must signal that he's near 100%, but he certainly isn't playing like it, apart from the two treys that were so huge against NE. If he truly was rushed back, that's on the doctors and Pikiell.
I mean he had that wicked dunk vs Indiana and the two 3s to win vs Nebby but the last threes games just unbelievably a non factor and today totally invisible
Doesn't mean he was rushed back. Do you have some specific information or are you just postulating? Often after an injury it takes players a while to trust the injured piece. He might just have gone into a slump and players playing badly don't get a lot of minutes. It's not clear to me at all that he was rushed back.
His shots have been BRUTAL. Right now he looks like a shell of himself. He's #9 in the rotation right now and it's not even close.
his minutes decreased dramatically, not starting at all..come on...Caleb played 34 minutes today, Pike just said last week, he puts the ball in Geo hands at the end of games. Something is not right, its more than a slump
It’s a f’ing finger on his no shooting hand. He looked fine hitting the big shot against Minny. He looked fine with that dunk against Indiana. He looked fine with that game winner against Nebraska. This isn’t a broken leg. If you can contribute, you play. He has to figure it out. Enough
I don't think there is any way to conclude that he was rushed back to the detriment of anything. Anything's possible. But no real info that would lead me to a strong conclusion in any direction.
