    He went down during a rebound. I thought this deserved it's own thread to spread the news.

    It didn't look too bad until he said "It's not good..."

    That's because he's a tough mother fucker, but it was obvious it wasn't good just from how his knee bent.

    Casey Holdahl ‏@CHold No real update on Joel Freeland. Stotts says he'll probably have an MRI, doesn't know if he'll travel with the team to LA

    His knee was slightly bent so the impact wasn't as bad as it could've been IMO.

    I'd guess this is a meniscus tear.

    Sucks for Joel but maybe Meyers finally gets his shot at helping this team.

    Or maybe Robinson should get those minutes.

    I saw both Leonard and Robinson playing solid in the second half. I'm guessing Robinson gets first shot, based on potential, but Meyers actually grabbed some boards in traffic tonight with authority.

    Oh boy. Well, a trade will be in the works now. As 8 weeks puts us in April. Hmmm...

    This sucks for Freeland. The guy truly worked his ass off and showed tremendous improvement. Wish him a speedy recovery!

    Yeah that sucks for this year, but at least no surgery is needed. He will be able to totally recover and recover a lot quicker.

    I thought TRob and Myle played well, but the real loss is how steady Freeland has been this year. The guy is just solid. He's not a star, but he can knock down a shot, he plays good defense, and he sets a decent pick. Robinson and Leonard are both so inexperienced. They're both capable of making a big play, and I personally love Robinson's effort, but we're going to miss Freeland. We could count on him to play solid minutes behind Rolo.

    At least he won't need surgery.
