Many weeks have passed without the cleansing light of the sun. Dark clouds roil overhead. The carrion birds circle. The terrible prophecy that the elders relayed to us is coming to pass.
Evan Fournier isn’t doing as good with Victor Oladipo back in the lineup, just as the wise ones foretold.
I was just sort of hoping that Victor wasn’t ever going to come back, that he would remain injured in perpetuity until he was 35 and it was time for him to retire. Such were the consequences of his absence that I even heard a few rumblings concerning Fournier and the Most Improved Player award. Those particular rumblings have stopped now, replaced with the Earth groaning endlessly, reacting to the fulfillment of the prophecy.
