    I didn't even flinch this time ... but based on the fact that he was able to go a little bit, I'd guess it's not too severe ... I'd guess.

    Please get better soon. :( I don't think we can live with Rudy's streaky shooting, but we will see.

    Well I don't think it will kill us, but we might lose a few games because of it :dunno:

    by now I'm used to you not making much sense, so in a roundabout way this nonsequitur works

    I didn't see what happened to Bayless... could someone fill me in please :)

    Well I wasn't trying to diss Rudy, but I just don't think he will provide the scoring like Bayless/Roy can (especially Roy). Of course Bayless is still inconsistent, but he was capable of scoring thanks to how he can get to the rim. Rudy is strictly a shooter in the mold of Blake and may not provide that third scorer behind Miller and Aldridge. I am just worried on how we will score. :(

    I didn't think you were dissing him, I was trying to be a little funny; implying that we won't literally die ... nevermind, it wasn't that funny after all. :cheers:

    O my bad, I catch on to jokes quick, eh? :(

    You're right though, it won't kill us, unless he gets hurt again too... :O

    Ya know, I'm just numb to it now. No reaction whatsoever. What? An asteroid is heading toward Portland? OK. Catch ya later.

    Yup, same reaction. When he came up hobbled, I wasn't shocked, I wasn't mad, I wasn't sad, it was like, watching a leaf fall from a tree, it barely even registerd as an "event"

    well at least no one is arguing that doctors and trainers should be able to prevent twisted ankles.

    I guess this is an example of when it rains it pours

    Are you saying Bayless shooting isn't steaky?

    No, we're just nervously hoping that they won't screw up the treatment of this ailment as well...

    Where did I say that? Anywhere? I admit Rudy is a better shooter than Bayless, but at least Bayless can bring another dimension to his game and create for himself and others. Rudy does not (or has not) shown that ability to drive, all he has shown is he is a jump shooter, streaky at that. Are you disagreeing he is streaky?

    What makes it worse is the fact that Rudy is clearly not fully back from his injury. He's so rusty it's not even funny. His handles are shakier than I've ever seen.

    Pops is a Urologist. I didn't see Jerryd go down and didn't know what had happened, but I figured his expertise probably wouldn't be needed.
