I need another Point Guard. Tony White Flag is injured, and I am not sure about Travis Best. I'm willing to give up Vlad Radmanovic, and Vlade Divcac, and maybe Bonzi Wells.
That's my point about why a small IL hurts you. The injured players don't directly hurt your team stats, but not being able to replace them with an active player indirectly hampers what you could be doing. That's all.
