  • Everything Flipper

    Toronto's Andrea Bargnani has begun pool workouts to rehabilitate his injured calf muscle. ``His new nickname is Flipper,'' Casey joked before the game. Bargnani will increase his workload over the next week, but Casey said the team was taking a cautious approach to his return. Bargnani sat for the 15th time in 17 games Sunday

      • Coach Dwane Casey said he couldn’t be sure when the 7-foot Bargnani would return; he’s still out “indefinitely” according to the team. Bargnani, who leads the club in scoring at 23.5 points per game, hasn’t played since Jan. 25 in Utah and also missed seven games earlier with the same affliction. He’s only played 13 games this season.

        Since he’s done no on-court work — he’s doing low-impact rehab in a swimming pool with little work even in the weight room — it’s unclear whether he’ll be able to join the team for back-to-back road games at Houston and New Orleans right after the break.

        While his absence has been felt considerably — he attracts more attention from defences than any other Raptor and that creates space to operate for his teammates — Toronto has to get used to playing without him.

        “Bargnani is obviously a big guy we’re missing but we don’t need him to win games,” forward James Johnson said after practice Monday. “I think when he comes back he always gives up a boost of confidence but if we can find that without him, we’ll be rolling.”

                          • UPDATE: Bargnani will travel with team to Houston and New Orleans, could play

                            DeRozan averaged 20.4 points in his last seven games before the break, but he might not have to shoulder as much of the load starting Tuesday. Leading scorer Andrea Bargnani (23.5 points per game), who has missed the last 14 games with a calf injury, is traveling on the team's two-night trip to Houston and New Orleans and could play.

                              Bargnani has traveled on every road game this season. His presence means nothing in terms of when he will return.

                                Yup, I believe it's one of Casey's new team policies, where injured players are expected to travel with the team on road trips to maintain a level of camaraderie.
