    Wow, dude. Welcome to the Blazers - you are already a better fit to join this team than I ever could have imagined.

    Returning to GB for tests, per Ian Whittell's twitter.

    If true.... wow. Good thing Freeland was going to be nothing but a benchwarmer this year.

    Sounds like a minor tweak that occurred during shootaround (WTF?). And GB is just being overly cautious.

    Seems precautionary. He's got a lot on the line for both GB and the Blazers.

    Do you ever have a sane thought on the Blazers?

    From all i'v read its really nothing more then precautionary by GB to make sure there whole team is 100% healthy for the olympics. Same reason Deng is out and has had tests.

    I don't quite understand what this is:

    Anyway, I've read two articles that mentioned that this was just a precautionary thing.

    That's why I never pick up niggles when I see one laying in the street; you think to yourself, "hey, free niggle!" But it just isn't worth it.
