    I have the Phoenix homer broadcast team who merely mentioned Nico has a right shoulder strain and won't return. Is there anything more from the Blazers' side?

    The Phoenix announcers are idiots. They talked about Batum's shoulder injury tonight without ever once mentioning that he missed a large part of the season due to shoulder surgery. Shows how much they know.

    Feel better, Nic!

    Re: What's the word on Batum?

    Exactly. Clearly he reinjured it, but they didn't mention how badly. I figured the Portland broadcast team would have more detail.

    Re: What's the word on Batum?

    I was really surprised by Gary Bender. Sure, he's local now, but he had a long national career. They knew they were announcing a national game and they were in full blown homer mode. If I were them, I'd be a little embarrassed. Their color guy was simply shameful and Bender got caught up in the party. I think they were probably frustrated by Game 1.

    Re: What's the word on Batum?

    Thanks. I'm beginning to think Nico has been playing with a shoulder that's not 100% since he returned.

    So, based on how this season has gone I'm guessing he's done.

    Based on THIS season, I would guess right arm amputation.

    Lol, I guess it is true Batum played with that injury for the whole summer last off-season. Fuckin' guy.

    If Batum is out, Webster can play 48 mpg at SF. He's been having a great series. But that weakens our depth at SG. It means we have to play Rudy and we have to light a fire on him and get him to get aggressive out there.
