What's up with this season's injury bug? It seems to me like there are injuries coming left and right. Pau Gasol - was injured for a while in the beginning of the season Lamar Odom - out a month Nenad Krstic - out for season Rashard Lewis - out 2 months Peja Stojakovic Bobby Jackson - rib injury Kobe Bryant - missed first couple of games in start of season Shaquille O'Neal Tracy McGrady - just returned last night Yao Ming - out for a month Chris Mihm - out for season Monta Ellis - shoulder injury Chris Paul - out with ankle injury Josh Smith - could miss 4 weeks Sam Cassell Paul Pierce - out 2-3 weeks Kenyon Martin - out for season Marcus Camby - broken finger Kirk Snyder - out 8-10 weeks Bobby Simmons - out for season Rashard McCants - out for season David West Shavlik Randolph - out for season Darius Miles - out for season Robert Swift - out for season Chris Bosh - out 1 week Ron Artest - sore knees (could be faking it) These are just some of the injuries already this season.
I know man. It's been crazy, and this isn't even counting the likes of Brandon Roy, AK47, Ray Allen, Speedy Claxton, Marvin Williams, etc. So many people have been getting hurt this year, and unfortunately for me, I've been the owner of a lot of them on my fantasy squads.
Maybe the refs just have to whistle more, for the physical situations. I don't know what to do. You can never now when you land badly or something. It sucks ! Big stars are out, especially McGrady and Yao. Omg man.

Even with all these injuries, we haven't seen any breakout player that should be getting more minutes now. Gerald Green might turn into one though. Amare and Grant Hill are still holding up!
AK hasn't been as hurt this year either But was out with a sprained ankle and has a concussion now. Kyle Lowry-Broken Wrist Brad Miller-8 weeks Foot Mike Bibby-Hurt wrist (came back after 4 weeks, but should of waited full 8) Whole Warriors team was out at one point seems like J-Chillz been out for awhile for ATL Then throw in all those DEN-NYK Brawl suspension on top
Add Chris Paul to the list. He had a bad ankle sprain in the Seattle game. I also read AK47 chipped parts of his teeth after catching some elbows.
oh you forgot about Aaron Mckie Injury is part of the game. I think the NBA did an okayish job trying to prevent injury accident by implementing a fragrant foul and a fine.

Well, it's really sad that so many great athelets are getting injured like this. Maybe the NBA has banned some training substance? Who know's <div class="quote_poster">dallasdude Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Add Wade to that injury list.</div> That was his wizdom teeth. Not a true injury...

The Wizards have had their shares of injuries this season. The loss of Michael Ruffin and Etan Thomas during the season has forced Eddie Jordan to go on a 7 man rotation, not trusting guys like Blatche or Taylor. Songalia being out 8-12 weeks in the beginning of the season hasn't hurted the Wizards much, since they've been scoring like there's no tommorow, but it does lose another guy that can come off the bench and contribute.
