Yi Out Indefinitely
Yahoo sports has the story:
The New Jersey Nets say an MRI performed on forward Yi Jianlian confirmed that he has sprained a ligament in his right knee.
The Nets said Tuesday that Yi will begin rehabilitation immediately and there is no timetable for his return.
Get used to Bobby Simmons at the 4. It is probably the worst experiment in professional sports right now, but Lawrence Frank seems commited not to play Brook Lopez and Sean Williams at the same time. Match-up problems it creates be damned!
The other direction Frank might go is starting Eduardo Najera. He hinted at the possibility in practice today.

I know this is old by now, and we're seeing it as I type this, but Brook is going to face more bodies down low. Because we know very well that Boone isn't going to step in for Yi, their games are nothing alike. (I'm a UConn alum and appreciate Josh, but he hasn't grown since his second season.)
