    Also, kudos to the mods for nuking the Basketball Gods curse thread.

    All glory be to the mighty basketball gods for sparing our superstar at this time from great injury and we remain humble in hopes that you keep our roster injury free in the future. The universal scales tip toward balance because of your wisdom and mercy.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Gods, schmods. What could go wrong now? Things are as bad as they could possibly be for the Blazers. I defy any "god" to find a way things could get any worse.

    The last time someone said something like that, Donald Trump was elected president.

    My first thought when he went off was meniscus.

    And shut your whore mouth

    If he cant extend his leg, I think its worse then they’re telling us, but Im not a doctor so could be wrong.

    That the first test was inconclusive gave me hope that it isn't major. Hopefully it really is minor and just needs rest and isn't something small they can't see that could grow into something worse like Collin's foot.

    However, if he can't extend his leg, it's natural to consider it might be something a little worse.

    Not being able to extend could be from swelling

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Assuming it's a grade 1 MCL injury, the usual treatment is 1-3 weeks of resting it. As a pro athlete, it's possible Lillard could try to return earlier. The main risk is that he can't run and jump naturally and, in compensating for it, suffers a more serious tear.

    You ever sprained anything playing sports? Shit, I’ve done my ankle so bad it looked like a softball for weeks. I’m quite sure there is some major swelling going on.
