Aldridge Injury Update Thread

[HailBlazers]

I feel so bad

Came down real hard on LA last night for not attacking the basket enough. So tonight he does just that and goes down injured.

Would people please post anything that they hear about Aldridge on this thread? Thanks in advance.

That looked "bad for the season" bad.

Oh shit. No bueno.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Any video? I missed it.

Oh shit. No bueno.

It looked like he landed near the lumbar/tailbone region of his body. He's going to be feeling pain for a while.

In the game thread.

Paul Pierce was in a wheelchair in 2008 NBA Finals but came back to play. Thanks for the updates guys. Keep them coming. Get well soon, LaMarcus!

They announced the burial will be after the service on Saturday. Relatives only. You are a bad, bad man.

The Blazers should shut him down for awhile. Hopefully he will get back whatever it is he had when he was a near-dominant force. Because softie-ball does not help us.
Portland is better off with out that.

Aldridge or Zach missing major games has happened late in many seasons. It always gets prolonged, way more than initially expected, so we can tank.

This board is so predictable right now.

 

[jlprk]

Riverman returned to the board an hour ago. Cmeese is back. You are batting 0 for 2.

You know, I've never done this in the dozen or so years that I've posted on basketball forums, but ....

FUCK OFF!!!!

Seriously, a guy who literally busts his ass playing for the Blazers and you use this time when he's hurting to say something like this? Beyond belief.

TD had an injury last season that looked season (and at his age possibly career) ending, yet was back in less than 2 weeks. Aldridge will prolly be back before y'all know it. Now you guys get to tank for seeding purposes!

 

[HailBlazers]

Is it just me or does Aldridge get no respect? Timmy's hanging all over him before he goes down.

Neither of our All-Stars get respect. I wonder what kind of calls they'd get in LA though.

 

[Strenuus]

Yeah. You can see TD swing his arm out when he leaves his feet... not safe.

I like how he raises his hand to take the foul, and then it isn't given to him.

[tlongII]

I think he'll be fine. Maybe miss 1 or 2 games.

Seriously? Have you watched the video? It was a freak accident, LMA went up out of control and fell down on his ass out of control. There was no malice or intent on the behalf of either Duncan or Baynes.

Is my eyesight that bad or are you trolling?

 

[Rz4k]

Ya the people who keep crying for Baynes or Duncan to receive a flagrant/ban for that are ridiculous.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Not to downplay the injury cause I didn't see in the context of the game, but it didn't look like that bad of a fall to me on the replay. I'm sure in hurt but it didn't look as bad as I expected. No flagrant foul or malice.

Please, aside from you assuming, where did I say he "intentionally" swung? I just said it wasn't safe. NEVER said intentional.

When you find it, let me know.

[dviss1]

So you make this claim but then backpedal? Make up your fucking mind. "TD swing out his arm" implies intent, yet here you are claiming "it wasn't safe". WTF is he supposed to do? Get down on his knees and suck pee pee?

Dude calm the fuck down rook. "TD swinging his arm out" doesn't imply intent at all. It just describes an action. Now if you add an adjective like maliciously, or purposely then that describes intent.

Reading is fundamental.
