    Maybe he was working in some underground mines in France after the Olympics....... maybe he has that Copper Tunnel Syndrome?

    Good news! This is just the season-ending excuse we need to keep our draft pick!

    *Bump* What the HELL is wrong with Batum's wrist???

    Do the Blazers have no "wrist expertise" on their medical staff? This is ridiculous!

    It was really bad to watch. He clearly is in a lot of pain out there. He was holding his wrist almost the entire game.

    I don't know why they keep him out there? Maybe once claver is ready, they should just start him over batum and let him heal. It only helps our lotto chances anyway.

    If you don't stop playing it doesn't heal fully, making it more susceptible to further aggrevation, it's a vicious cycle.

    Time to shut him down, what would POP do?

    I tried taking a picture of him holding his wrist. It was the norm the entire game. I was really feeling sorry for him. It's also effecting his game on the defensive end. He was trying to use his off hand the entire game to alter shots.

    He is really favoring that wrist.
