i know ive been down on this kid since before the draft - but you have to admit that your 'He's played a tremendous amount of ball this past year' argument is flimsy at best -
they play closer to a college schedule in europe - he didnt play one game all summer until the 3/4 of a summer-league game in which he got hurt - for a 19 yr old kid to miss a month w/ a 'sore back' after playing 3/4 of one game is clearly not a good sign..
either the injury is a lot worse than first reported or this kid is an uberpussy - either way it's not looking good..
uber---y...too funny.

Yeah, it's tough to argue you on this because the facts speak for themselves - he's been out 1 month because of his injury. Your points are pretty valid at this juncture. Hopefully, your opinion on Gallo will change as the season progresses...
