    You said it to other people in the game thread.

    I asked nicely, even said please.

    Again, please stop telling people to shut up.

    The Rodney Hood move is looking better and better.

    It'll just become the Dame and Nurk show. Hood will keep the floor spaced. I hope CJ doesn't miss a game but if he is out for any amount of time, it's next man up. That's got to be the mentality.

    It sounds like a knee sprain. I'm just hoping its not anything more...

    This does not seem as bad to me as some on here seem to think it is. There is a month left in the season pretty much. The injury really doesn't seem that severe. It gives some players some chances to work with the starting unit. Namely Hood and Seth at times. Hopefully Stotts doesn't go all in on Turner. Cj takes a week or two off and comes back well rested. In time to cut back on Dames Minutes so he can get some rest also.

    I think if CJ’s gonna miss a few games, the obvious Choice is Hood. However I like Hood in the role he’s in now. Would be interesting to see Trent Jr or Simons get some of those minutes.

    Lets say worst case CJ is done for the season, does that give everyone involved a “pass” if they get handled in the playoffs?

    I also wonder if they were hoping to try to include him in a trade for AD or something how bad that hurts his trade value.

    Anyways none of that is as important as just hoping he’s alright and its nothing long term, hate when guys get hurt. Hope he gets good news from the MRI.

    Knowing that this is pissing into the wind as I write it...

    We won’t know anything until after the results of the MRI tomorrow. Knee, shin, ankle, bruise, worse...? I’m down with speculation about how we play without him for however long it is, but breaking site rules over injury speculation isn’t cool.

    Are there site rules for injury speculation?

    Judging by where he was grabbing, my non educated guess is something involving his MCL.

    No, there are site rules for insulting people and trolling over injury speculation.
    Did I adequately answer your condescending question? ;)

    Portland Trail Blazers Guard CJ McCollum:

    (On how he sustained an injury in tonight’s game...)

    “I went up for a layup, a left handed layup, and the big fella blocked it and landed on my foot, and kind of trapped my foot on the ground. I felt my knee kind of twist. I was in some pain. ”


    (On his current condition…)

    “It hurts. I got an x-ray. The X-rays came back negative, so I’ll get an MRI tomorrow.”


    (On his level of concern...)

    “You never want to get hurt, not ever, especially at this point in the season, but there’s nothing I can do about it except rehab and see what they say.”


    (On if his knee is where he believes he suffered the injury…)

    “I’ve broken my foot, so I know what that feels like, so it's not my foot. It’s definitely around my knee, but I don't know the extent of it. I don’t know if it’s lateral. I don’t know. I just know that it’s not normal.”
