Making A Strong Case For An All Star Appearance
So if, as Scoop B reports, the new diagnosis for Kyrie Irving is thoracic bursitis, it’s a rare condition. A physiotherapist we spoke with says it’s caused by trauma, overuse of both. The only cure is rest and plenty of it. There’s no surgical solution.
Final: Knicks 94, Nets 82.
This was one of the worst shooting nights in Nets HISTORY.

The Nets are waiving G/F David Nwaba, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium. Nwaba will miss the remainder of the season with a torn Achilles tendon.
Good morning, all.
It’s been a rough couple of weeks for the Nets, but Caris LeVert returns Saturday after missing the last 7 weeks due to thumb surgery.

• Losers in 4 straight (5 of 6)

The Nets offered no update on Kyrie Irving. He’s been out since November 14 with a shoulder impingement. #Nets
Kyrie Irving, talking to reporters for the first time since Nov. 14, said he is "doing a lot better." He said he is struggling to lift his shoulder when taking jump shots.
He said the shoulder first flared up during the Nov. 4 game against the Pelicans. He said he has had Cortisone injected into his shoulder.
Irving said he has seen several shoulder specialists, including one in Arizona.
Irving said that surgery has been posed as a possibility. Getting the cortisone shot was done in attempt to hold off on surgery. He does not have imminent plans for surgery, but will continue to evaluate.
Today was a Nets nightmare.
... 16-18 on the season.
