I made this point before. He and and LA as cursed as this organization has been through the years have not sustained any major injuries. To me the likelihood that they would is small due to this. Which gives me optimism and comfort especially when came back and said it was a contusion. He will be fine.
This is the only response that need be read. Not saying other responses aren't good, but this is spot on.
Yes but a team can pass an injured player if they want to. Depends on how bad they want the player. Every team's physical is different. Players that fail for some teams would pass others and vice versa.
Well, we don't personally know Batum's injury status. Only the info we receive from Portland's management team.
Watch the video interview about his injury on the team website and he says he has a deep knee bruise inside the knee, not outside. That's meniscus area. I had the same thing happen to me back in the 90's. My doctor explained it to me
Is this what I have to look forward to when I get older?! I'm 41 going on 42 and shits falling apart already
Yes. I just had meniscus surgery last week. Not sure what else they did (they told my wife something but she didn't quite get the picture LOL -- I'll find out next week), but I have a big divet in the side of my knee, and these days they routinely polish up the bones on old guys like you while they are in there. Ah, sweet relief!
Lol yeah I went to Walgreens to get foot pads. My heels feel like daggers are poking them if I am on my feet for more than 30 minutes. I fear I have some bone spur or something. And I have cramps in my back off and on for the last couple years. Feels like I have tennis balls under my skin Getting old sucks!
