    Just a heads up Sly and Nate. I'm on Reddit like, all the fucking time. I'm basically reposting all the great stuff you guys find and trying to send as much traffic this way as I can. Also going to start bugging the mods about giving me some powers if I post enough shit.

    Well, I would imagine a full heal would take a couple months. I believe it's on his shooting hand, and anybody who has played with a hurt thumb knows that it hurts like a bitch because you constantly hit the sucker.

    He should use the rehab time to really work on his left hand. Dribbling and finishing going left all day. He could be dangerous if he could finish as well going left as he can with his right. Maybe a blessing in disguise.

    Ouch! A tear (as oppose to a strain) of a ligament can't be good (worse than a broken bone). Will they repair it with surgery or does he just live and play with one less ligament in his hand?

    This really sucks . . . fell bad for T-Rob

    Yeah really sucks; I was loving the defense of our starters out there. I think we could've won the 'chip. Our chances took a big hit with this.

    Even if he makes a full recovery before training camp it'll prevent him from working on his game. Tough break.

    Not to be a punk, but tear and strain are often used interchangably. 3rd degree muscular strain means it's torn all the way through to where you can't really feel pain in it because it's not connected (use the same for ligaments), 1st degree strain is a very minor tear, and 2nd degree strain is basically in between, and typically by far the most painful. Sounds like he has a 1st or 2nd, I would guess first and they're just being careful.

    We seem to have an injury to someone we see as a key reserve almost every year in summer league it seems.
