    Thank god. This dude been killing and really deserved all the success. Feel bad he plays for an organization that can’t get him pieces. I had a good feeling it was nothing when the first one came inconclusive. Next year!!

    C’mon Neil, it’s your time now to put some good players to pair with Dame. This team proves that they are a playoff team but we need some fire power to get over the hump.

    Partial tear is about the best outcome we could have hoped for

    Must be a partial MCL tear. Not a big deal. Phew!!

    I had one when I was 18 playing ball, heard a POP and thought I’d blew out my knee., yet was back playing tournaments in 2 weeks. 4 weeks completely fine except for inflammation at times as I get older and exert. Rest up, Dame, and see you in January!

    Sit CJ, Melo, and Nurk too. Wave the white flag.

    Simons / Adams
    Trent
    Hoard
    Gabriel / Hezonja
    Whiteside

    Chris Haynes says Dame can't even extend his leg right now. Swelling must be crazy

    Yikes. You know his source is Dame himself too, so that is certainly not good.

    Great news considering the circumstances. Some day we will have a healthy roster in the playoffs. I just hope I'm still alive.

    Time to think ahead to next season. We all know that there will be no wholesale changes at coaching/GM. But Whitesides and Melo will probably walk because of more cash elsewhere. I don't know where Portland will be in terms of the cap etc.

    The bad news is that Dame will probably not available for the next round.

    What kind of season has this been? At least Dame avoided the worst case scenario and it sounds like there will be no long-term issues with the knee.

    And now you continually repeat Monty Python - "I'm not dead yet!"

    That's how my MCL sprain was. The swelling is on the sides of the knee. I had to keep my knee bent, it was swollen so I couldn't extend my knee. Rasied on a pillow whenever I slept, it was hard to get around.
