    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Richard Jefferson is doubtful for Game 2 Wednesday, having suffered a bone bruise of his left ankle Monday night. Neither an x-ray nor MRI detected anything more serious. "Just a sprained ankle,'' Jefferson said. "It's feeling better. No swelling, more just like a bruise. There's still tenderness but every few hours, it feels like it gets better." "We'll see where Richard's at tomorrow," Lawrence Frank said. "He's not out." Jefferson left the arena Monday in a walking boot and crutches but walked unaided into practice.</div>

    The nets better hope Jefferson returns soon cuz they will need all the help they can get to beat the heat. The Heat will play with a lot more intensity then they did in the first game.

    I am sorry to say this, but RJ is going to be out for the rest of the season (what ever remains of it). I remember getting the same exact injury that he got. I was about for three weeks + another two weeks of rehab (five weeks total).
    Assuming that the NBA doctors are better than what I had, we can cut his recovery time to two weeks.....

    I doubt that the Nets will be able to stick around for two weeks.

    RJ said he could have came back and played last night, so obviously he's a little more resilient than you. He's questionable for game 2 so I wouldn't exactly say he's out for the season.

    Yeh, that what I thought: "I'll hurt for 2-3 days and then I'll be playing sports again." It did not happen.

    He is not going to have any mobility when he tests it. That is, he'll have the mobility, but through a tremendous amount of pain. I saw how he hurt his ankle...It was almost identical to how I got my injury. If he plays, and plays well at that, then I will bow down to him as if he were an immortal god.
