after that road trip... we should be thrilled.... but with roys mri on the herizon.... its either gonna be a great xmas or a really depressing one for blazer fans. we can get by a week... but anything more... id say big trouble for us.
One of the biggest reasons for a lot of the wins lately is because we now have 3 scorers instead of just 2. It would be much tougher without him, that is a lot of production to make up.
I don't think we're going to hear squat until right before the Denver game. Why give Karl a better opportunity to prepare for the game?
dude...some of you guys should tryout...I hear the Blazers are trying out walk-ons but seriously...holy shit....this is becoming an epic case of injuries to one team
The best news we can get is that it will be TREATED PROPERLY and TREATED CONSERVATIVELY....no matter what the problem is. Our medical staff has had a short sighted view of these things in the past and caved in to players and management. Whatever the problem....we just have to make sure it is fixed right....no matter what that involves. Like everyone else I hope it is nothing serious. But its not like we are going to miss a championship opportunity if he misses even a month or two. I am really glad they had him sit out last night and are waiting until all the facts are in before deciding what to do. His long term health is too important to risk for the sake of winning a few games here and there.
Phew!! http://www.blazersedge.com/2009/12/24/1219080/brandon-roy-questionable-for Just a shoulder strain. Listed as questionable for tomorrow; man, I was fearing worse.
BREAKING NEWS: MRI comes back negative. No tears! Game time decision. http://blog.oregonlive.com/behindblazersbeat/2009/12/roy_mri_negative_will_be_game-.html
seriously, wtf? Us fans don't know shit about how injuries are handled. Thats a fact. We don't know if guys have been rushed or caved as you claim. Repeating BS ad nausea on the internets doesn't change this it only makes some posters appear to have a problem not pissing their pants whenever bad things happen. We are outside the loop on these sorts of things and always will be. Sorry STOMP
Are you watching the suns/clippers game? They just flashed to the rose garden and showed brandon warming up and shooting a lay-up with his left hand . . . and laughing!! I'm guessing he's a go for tonight.
