    From Freeman via Twitter:

    "Marcus Camby did not have x-rays because the x-ray technician at Staples could not be found. He was wincing as he put on his shoe after the game and will get x-rays Monday."

    That's horse shit.

    You know the x-ray tech would have been there if Kobe were hurt.

    probably won't make much difference to the team's short term interests (this year) whether it's correctly diagnosed tonight or tomorrow. And just using the eyeball test, it didn't look that bad... fingers crossed

    These days it's the new school "opponent's locker room has no "wi fi" bullshit.

    Nothing solid that I've seen. There is an encouraging post from Barrett's blog, though:

    Good to hear Camby will be okay. I agree that we should rest him until San Antonio.

    Faking the injury because he's upset he's not starting

    This is good news. When I saw him on the floor last night, I immediately assumed he would be grabbing his knee. Glad to see it was "only" an ankle.

    Interesting to see that they're going to actually play Johnson and move him into the rotation now. Can't think of a better time than up against the Wiz!
