    I keep thinking I'm in some twisted fucking dream designed by Freddy Kruger himself. Can someone fucking wake me up?!

    Well, I'm fine if we offer greg a multi-year contract now for a low figure. screw it, he can medically retire on us later if he needs to.

    best case scenario here. drive his price down.

    And really, if he was returning to action in Feb, he's only missing 3-4 months. This isn't the train wreck folks want it to be.

    Best case scenario is he earns a big fucking payday. Sorry but getting him cheap means shit to me if the troll can't play on he fucking court. Obviously this kid doesn't give a shit to get back to playing.

    I guess that's one way to look at it. At least they didn't extend him last year??

    what the fuck does a "Setback" mean anyway? Did he re-injure himself 'running' the other day or did he not heal correctly? Or.........was he too busy partying and not rehabbing like he should?

    Yes, it is true. Greg is purposefully setting himself back to screw himself out of tens of millions of dollars.

    Joel Freeland would be a godsend right now.

    Well at least this won affect the non-plan set by Larry Miller and Paul Allen.

    Whoa... calm the fuck down. Oden doesn't want to be injured any more then Roy did. Injuries happen to basketball players and all athletes all the time. Is Yao a troll as well?

    That's what I'm saying. If the kid was smart, he would do anything and everything to get back and prove he's worth max or damn near close. Instead he methodically takes this rehab to a point where he may not even be able to play this season?! Other playes like Zach and amare that come back and strong in 1.5 years.

    You guys are too funny, who really thought this dude was going to play this year anyway????? Ship his ass out, we've given him too much money to begin with!

    I am with ROYTOY, bring back the fucking Jailblzers. At least they were healthy and could play some ball.

    P.s. Please fire Nate while you're at it Jesus, his snail pace is probably what's killing these guys knees....AMEN

    Mags its all your fault for doing those bets. Luckily I picked LA so I am still good to go but at the rate it's going so far, I might be out by the end of the night.
