    Serious question here... Who has ever heard of a dislocated shoulder taking 4-6 months to recover from?

    How we would love to be able to spends Batum's money on someone else! I hope we can sign and trade LA and package Batum with him.

    Lillard, CJ and Meyers all have cheap contracts next season. Don't resign LA or Rolo and trade Batum. That's massive cap space that doesn't paint us in the corner. We can build via free agency and trades. This team will be 100% more fun to watch.

    Pretty disappointed with the effort the Blazer team is showing tonight.
    Rebounding is all about effort. 10 offensive rebounds in a quarter.
    Everyone who plays needs to show more effort. Not just one player.

    We haven't move the ball around like we did earlier in the year in a long time. So the shots the we do get are a much lower percentage

    I'd like to see a forum poll of how many want us to resign LA to the max (to keep, not to trade).

    OK Bro.

    I'd like to thank some of you for reminding me why I hate posting here when the team is losing. Catcha closer to the draft.

    I believe he's having surgery on the shoulder, in fact.

    It's not a myth that he's a good defender. But he certainly hasn't been good THIS series.
    It appears a lot of it has to do with Stotts' defensive plan though - all series he's had Nic on Tony Allen (!) or Lee (more understandable) and has had him roaming. So, when he gets switched onto Lee it's no surprise that he's giving him room because that's what Stotts has asked him to do.

    I heard Love also had bone bruises. If the bone that is bruised is the joint itself... That has to be extremely painful.
    I know when my grandfather broke the joint bone that holds the wrist in place it took him well over a year and a half for him to be able to use his wrist like he used to... But then again keep in mind my grandfather grew up in the depression and he refused to stop working on the farm -.- .

    The spurs are 0% fun to watch in the minds of the mindless media, yet they have 5 championships in that time.... So...
