    Hmm... Chandler must be more hurt than people thought.

    Interesting and, while injuries are kinda brutal, this is good news for Portland if NO doesn't have Chandler OR either of the guys that they woulda got for him.

    I checked and there were no other threads. Maybe I should hit reload first!

    I'd love to know what their doctors found. BTW, who would be OKC's physician, Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman?

    Yeah, it must be serious. I would think that if it were just a normal ankle injury or something that he is good enough that they would just wait for him to come back.

    Or, maybe they got another offer afterwards that was better, and are using the injury as an excuse to back out and take the other offer.

    I just thought of something, could he have told them he refuses to play in Oklahoma City? He was on the team when the Hornets had to play there for part of the time, right? Did he ever come out and say never again?

    But with a big contract to match. Everyone wants a good player with a small contract.

    Or, possibly it was a head injury rather than an ankle injury. That is, he made it clear he didn't want to play in OKC.

    Looks like we had the same idea at the same time. Bet that's it. Both of us couldn't be wrong :)
