    "And so we've decided to just scrap Greg's current pair of knees and build some new ones."

    It sounds like they are trying to convince Jay to stay, he should resign out of shame.

    Sounds like the PC is for as much damage control for the training staff as it is about Greg.

    Last I checked, the medical/training staff didnt build Greg like a Lego robot. He's born with/developed bad knees. Nothing they can do about it. There have been far more healthy players that have worked with the training staff then there have been injured players. Like Nate just said, the G.State Warriors had more injuries than we did last season.

    Last I checked, the medical/training staff reviews the fitness and potential durability of all of our potential draft picks.

    Why does he keep saying "another player"? We know it was Eliot... or was it?

    Dr. Roberts needs to be medically retired as well.

    Last I checked, almost every GM/training staff in the league would have taken Greg #1 in that draft.

    I think it would have been good to have Greg there to send a message to the fans.

    I'm sorry that Jay is having a hard time, but honestly... It's time for his staff to go. It's not personal.

    I found out while watching the end of the Bulls and Spurs game. Saw it run by on the ticker. That's how I found out about Oden's first micro fracture. I was crushed then. I felt nothing tonight. I'm just numb. I wish the best for Greg and his family.
