Sullinger out for the year in Boston who was already depleted in the backcourt. Could use a guy like Kito.

So sorry to hear that about Sullinger. He was doing so well. His father and I are friends from Columbus, Ohio. What is his injury?

Hi Everyone: The good news is that the schedule for Kito's games has been released. He will play 9 games in the regular season until the playoffs begin. His games are roughly one a week. Once the playoffs begin at the end of March, he will be playing almost every other day. The playoffs end at the end of April at which time he will be coming home. I signed up for the PBA Live online broadcast of his games for $11.00 a month. (Phillipines Basketball Association) I don't know if all of them are broadcast because they only seem to be releasing a weekly calendar. However, I do know that his first game will be broadcast on Saturday, February 9th (which we can see on Friday, February 8th. His team, Talk N Text won the championship for the last 3 rounds, so they should enjoy plenty of airplay. I think that you can also get a 7 day free trial. You can go on their web site for more information about opponents. Just Google Talk N Text basketball. I haven't seen that the schedule is posted on the web site, yet. However, I am going to provide the dates and times for the games below. I will just give you the Manila date and time first with the USA date and Eastern Standard Time in parenthesis in red: February 9th Saturday 8:00 pm (USA February 8th Friday 7:00 am EST) February 15th Friday 5:15 pm (USA February February 14th Thursday 4:15 am EST) February 20 Wednesday 5:15 pm (USA February 19th Tuesday 4:15 am EST) February 24 Sunday 6:30 pm (USA February 23rd Saturday 5:30 am EST) March 1 Friday 7:30 pm (USA February 28th Thursday 6:30 am EST) March 9 Saturday 6:30 pm (USA March 8th Friday 5:30 am EST) March 13th Wednesday 7:30 pm (USA March 12th Tuesday 6:30 am EST) March 17th Sunday 6:30 pm (USA Saturday 16th 5:30 am EST) March 22 Friday 5:15 pm (USA Thursday 21st 4:15 am EST) I also found out from Customer Service that they don't archive the games. So, the only option is to Rise & Shine!

Thanks for the info.
And Sullinger has back surgery. Guess the day to day was a bit more serious.

Having expressed my sympathy for him, is this mean to say? He knew that his back was bad all of the time. C'mon, keeping it real, that is why he fell from the lottery. Of course, it is the Celtic's job to do due diligence in ascertaining the condition of his body, not his to 'fess up. But, Kito acknowledged his hand injury, had surgery and fell in the draft the following year. He took his lumps. By Sullinger certifying that his back was fine, he achieved a multi-year million dollar contract. If he never plays again or recovers to be the same, he gets paid.
His back might be okay for walking around, but when he started playing extended minutes and entered the starting line-up, his back couldn't hold up under multiple games a week with an NBA schedule.
Is it wrong to bring this up, guys? I'm ready to be scolded.

Not wrong to bring it up. I don't wish ill for Sullinger or anyone else, but obviously Benson needs an opportunity at some point and injuries have a way of creating those.

Inquiring minds want to know how the Erie Bayhawks are doing since Benson departed. They have fallen below 8th ranking. They were ranked 6th when Benson departed. They are no longer playoff contenders. Last 10 games: won 4; lost 6. I don't make the news. I just report it.

Good first game for Keith, but it also looks like Dawson on the other team may have really shredded him. 37 points and 14 boards.
